well I must say sorry for not having a video of the feeding event....
It did go very well though!
I find my heart was beating quite fast at the thought of just picking Tangee up (it's been a few days), I noticed her coiling up as I put my hand in to get her, I've not had a strike yet so I was a little nervous.
Rather than strike she shot off around the rub, I picked her up quickly before she got over excited and popped her into feeding tub.
This is where it all went not quite to plan, I had my wifes camera at hand ready to record video of a strike and feed.
That was the idea anyway, I grabbed the tweezers picked up the pinkie, I grabbed the camera in the other hand, I dropped the pinkie, I pressed what I thought was the record button, I picked up the pinkie again, nearly dropped the camera. I aimed the camera in the direction of Tangee, I held the pinkie in front of Tangee she had a few sniffs/licks and struck and missed (probably because I jumped), She then struck high and held on, I pulled a little and then released. A couple of minutes and the mouse had gone !!!
It was great... I went to review my footage and I had completely missed the strikes, I did get the mouse going down into her tummy...
Ah well, try again next time.

LOL, yeah, the first feed was both exciting and nerve wracking both at the same time. I did Maizie's on Wednesday and didn't manage to get anything recorded so you managed more than me. |
