On the advice of the breeder I waited 3 days after settling the babies in, they were pacing about the viv looking hungry. Then last night had the first go at feeding. The female (we think!) struck so violently that she shot backwards out of the feeding tub and ended up with her tail coiled around my third finger. She than ate the pinky tail first while hanging from my finger as I did my best to not even breathe! The second (male?) nosed the pinky, then as I slowly drew it away he followed and then grabbed it, took him longer to swallow it. She weighed 7g, he weighed 6g. We were all sooo happy that the first feed was a total success - and amazing to watch - brilliant.
