| Perhaps she is in the early stages of going into Blue (pre shed)? Otherwise, i would just try again in a few days/week...if she starts getting especially hungry i'm sure you'll see her hunting around her viv |

| I agree, if the pinkies are slimy I'd get more from somewhere else .... what I would do is leave it until next feeding day and try her with one of the new pinky's :) |

| Have just rung pets at home customer services to complain they agreed the pinkys shouldnt really be black and goopy after defrosting they suspect theyve been delivered then left out deforsted then put in the freezer in which case theyve probably been defrosted and refrozed twice (assuming they defrosted on the way home after purchase) |

| Thanks guys i dunno if it was the pinkies or here lol maybe she wasnt hungry or is fussy lol its mad cause the two snakes have totally polar opposite personalities Eddies really laid back wont let anything get between him and a meal (even shedding) Eves really fussy with food and seems to think shes a contestant on the krypton factor (god i feel old bringing that up!) |
