Hey guys
Hope everyone had a great xmas and new year anyone get anything special for xmas ? Sorry ive not been around xmas kinda went outta the window a bit some of you already know but my nan lost her battle with cancer 2 days before xmas we were told at xmas 2010 she had days or weeks to live so she fought till the bitter end bless her i spent her last days by her side so sleep food etc all went out the window and xmas was kinda put on the backburner on a more positive note all the snakes now seem to be eating normally again Eddie and Artemis went through a bit of a fussy patch Artemis is now eating large mice quite happily Eddies reluctant to make the move up to smalls but im working on it just using the smallest small mice i can lol. Ive converted 2 more snake fearing friends lol though there was an unfortunate incident with one lmao after the initial joy of overcoming his fear holding Artemis my friend suddenly found a very large puddle of poop covering his jeans haha poor guy its the first time Artemis has ever pooped outside her viv however it was a few days after her first large mouse so i guess she was probably a bit backed up ...still not been pooped on or tagged ...YET!
My wishlist for 2012 has changed slightly i do still want a/some royals but i think kings have moved to the top of the list also a carpet python would be awesome and id love a milksnake if i could find one locally lol |

Sorry to hear about your Nan. Hope you're ok. On a happier note, it's good to convert wary people. Shame about the pooping!! I've wanted a royal for ages but still haven't managed to free up any space for a viv. Maybe one day........... |

Bless you Paulie, so sorry about your poor Nan.
Good to hear your snakes are coming back on track. Hope Eddie finally goes up to larger prey
Having just aquired a King myself, I shall recommend them highly as a really cool snake to keep. |

I hadnt thought of that though imagaine if i got myself a rather mean looking Kingsnake and called it Winnie lol the poor thing would never live it down |
