Well, Plissken is still off his food with some more 'important' things on his mind, and it's coming up to 7 weeks since he has eaten. Which I'm not bothered about too much; he didn't eat for 2.5 months last year. He is still a big old lump, probably over 4.5 foot and 794 grams, so I've got quite a while until I start to worry...
But the girls are doing good. All 3 are on double fuzzies, and Sirae is soon going to break the 70 gram mark. Iara and Aguna are 52 grams. I really can't wait for them to all get up to weight so I can just pop into the shop and say "12 large mice" rather that "20 million fuzzies, and a large"... |

I don't know how Corns and probably other snakes as well can go for so long and not lose any significant weight. Big T's record was 17 weeks. They must be the most diet resistant creature around.  |

7 weeks? Pscht, if you want dedication, look at my Holly!  We're on week 19 with him having eaten nothing but a single fluff, which is pretty much to him what a chocolate biccy is to us!
Haha, anyway, lets hope they all start eating soon, breeding season is nearly over, so fingers crossed they'll all suddenly realize how hungry they are!  |

Haha, I'm mostly just looking forward to him not banging on the glass when I'm trying to sleep!  |

I'm sure he'd like banging something else more... |

Woop! Partial success with the feeding. He took a chick leg that I defrosted in the same tub as a medium mouse, hoped there would be some scent transfer to get him going. The mouse is still in his tank, with several holes poked through it's face...
And removing a frozen chicks leg is rather satisfying; makes a quite load noise!
