Decided to be brave today and give Loki 2 of the smaller pinkies.Good job the camera has an image stabiliser as my hands were shaking with nerves (how sad is that!)
Well he took the first one in no time and after it had travelled down I put the second one in,was a little worried to how he's react as the pinkie has always been in his box ready,but he was chasing it around while in the tongues. Looked so cute!

Anyway he wolfed it down in no time too. Took these piccies of it:

Pinkie number 1



Pinkie number 2


A little pause where the pinkie had been and then a nice big yawn

Auww lovely :D
It's the big feeding day here also, look forward to seeing if Aia is as energetic as last time xD

It's like feeding porridge to a baby - it's nice to see the plate empty xD

Well done Loki! If he feeds that well I'd try him on two next time and if there's no problem I'd move up a mouse size.

He'll be getting a treat of 2 pinkies next time for being such a good boy

I'm going to try him with 2 again next time. Got 5 pinkies left,after they've gone I'll try him with a fuzzy if alls gone well with the next couple of feeds.
Went the pet shop today for some hay so asked if I could have a look at the fuzzies. Nearly had a fit originally but then the woman lined them all up in size order so I was able to see the smaller ones. Feel better now having seen them

Me too,love it when snakes do the whole re-aligning of the jaws thing.
Then again though,they are fascinating in every way
