Fed Skittles quite a big fluff today. Think it was a bit too big for him as he tried to eat it once then just left it. Second time he took it but struggled and half way through he wrapped himself around it ( dont think he was constricting though ) so i grabbed the camera and took a few pics. Then my wee sister pointed out that his eyes had gone bulgy and we thought they were going to pop out or something stupid. So in conclusion he is a bulgy eyed freak... and i dont think i should feed him such a big fluff again as it makes his eyes pop out abd he struggles with it. Can snakes die if what they eat is too big? Because one on youtube ate a crocodile and died and the fluff skittles ate looked really bigger than usaual and he couldnt move after eating it because it was so big in him.





Thats his bulgy eyes

i was under the impression that if the food is to big then the snake would leave it.

seen a snake split its sides on tv eating a antelope(or something like that), they said they would soon heal and the snake wouldnt have to eat for another year. very impressive.

as for the crocodile thingy, i heard that the croc was already dead, and the snake ate it and the the decomposing croc's gases caused the snake to explode/ burst.

Looks ok to me, I don't think he'll have any problems with it.

oh thats ok. and PeteH canons are the best and Nikon cameras arepoop I hope you agree lol. Well thats o.k as long as he will be o.k. I think the pet shop owner was being generous because i had been for fluffs 3 times before and he didnt have any.

Thats a very determined snake lol.
I watched a documentary that said the anaconda that had eaten the crocodile was attacked by another crocodile.
