My first ball: bumblebee

Re: My first ball: bumblebee

Congrats beautiful snake. I would give him a day or two to settle in then try feeding. I wouldn't handle him still he eats for you.

Re: My first ball: bumblebee

Beautiful snake, lucky!
By the way you should try f/t before live mice. I'm sure plenty of people on this forum will agree there's just too many risks when feeding live. Usually live food is a last resort type of thing when the snake refuses food, but there's plenty of methodical ways of getting your snake to eat f/t. (f/t means frozen/thawed)

Re: My first ball: bumblebee

A gorgeous snake and great markings. Try taking a pic of the eyes, please. I thought they were colored but can barely make them out.

Re: My first ball: bumblebee

I like this morph. I plan on breading some within the next two years. Can't wait. Those are some nice pics. I agree that u need to leave the snake for some settling time. He won't eat if he is nervous.

How much would the general cost be for a bumblebee?

Re: My first ball: bumblebee

I paid $400 which was feeling like the drop dead lowest price (sticker was $450).

I'm so tempted to drop another mouse in with him tonight (supervised of course), but I'm going to give him at least another night to relax :/
