just fed medusa in her viv for the first time instead of RUB to try and make her less shy to coming out, made a scent and she followed it. found it quite fascinating to watch her roam around fine the source then BAM! hope she starts to come out a bit more now


my aunties, bestfriends, hairdressers, friends boyfriend had a snake and it stretched out to measure him to eat him......true story.....

That is fantastic Alex !! Medusa is definitely a confident and secure snake to feel happy feeding out in the open like that instead of in a RUB at her small size. That is all down to the way you have handled her, so well done !

Both my adults feed on a towel on the floor and a great advantage to it is that you get the chance for some great photo opportunities....so we expect to see some feeding pics soon !

I never feed mine in their vivs for that reason.
