Ive been lurking a bit of late because ive had so much going on and ive been feeling likepoopugh but i thought id post a quick update Artemis last ate on the 25th of novmeber i offered her food today (a small mouse as opposed to medium which is what shes been eating till now) she pushed it around for a few minutes then decided she wasnt interested Eddie ate no problem so i gues his refusal last week was simply due to him being in blue so that was a huuuge relief Eve and Barl ate no problem at all as per usual though eves fuzzie was a lil big looked more like a hopper but she ate it and looked comfortable enough after thankfully Barls now 5 months old and i weighed her shes a dinky 18 grams ..so teeny lol Eddies hopper barely left a bulge (see pic below) its still in the neck area should i try him on ssmall mice or just leave him on hoppers ?
id just like to say a huuuuge thanks to everyone for helping me keep my snakes happy and healthy the last 5 months and wish you all a very happy xmas and scaley new year
Luckily i have plenty of smalls in the freezer as artemis recently went up from smalls to mediums there doesnt seem to be hardly any difference between hoppers and smalls so i dont think hed struggle thanks mamma yeh ik ok just having a bit of a bumpy ride atm il be glad when xmas is over lol

Hey hope you are doing ok ! How old n what weight is Eddie our Ernest is on fuzzies n i,m wondering whether to move him up a size (they,re not leaving much of a bulge) In fact Ernest looks very similiar to Eddie just with more black outlining his saddles.

Eddies weighing in at 75 grams and hes about 18 months old hes been eating hoppers for the last few months and will now be moving onto small mice (from next week)
Just an update but while i was out this evening it appears Artemis has eaten yay!! i left a small mouse in her viv just in case when i got in a short while ago its gone so i assume shes eaten shes under her warm hide all snuggled so all signs point to good news what a relief!!
I had a quick root around in the substrate just to check i hadnt missed it but then i noticed a nice lil feeding bump in artemis under her hide so yay she definately ate i cannot tell you how stressed ive been about it it was really the icing on the cake of a lotta otherpoop
This forums been an absolute godsend for me and without all you guys support i think id have lost the plot by now il most definately be making a pre xmas donation to the site as soon as i get some dosh as a way of thanks
I think Eddie and Ernest are roughly the same weight and age (Ernest was 76g a few weeks ago and not completely sure of his age but possibly around the 18 mnth mark) so i reckon he,ll be on bigger dins soon ! so glad Artemis has eaten - jeeez i wish i could be as happy as a snake missing a good few meals !!!!
