First feedings!!!

Here are some pics of my new babies and they're first pinkies (with me anyway )
First is Phoenix, my Tang. Honduran

and Bandit, my son's Striped Desert Calking

Sorry about the blurry pics, the feeder tanks are getting old.
Thanks for looking

Glad they're both eating for you now! Did you end up getting them to take f/t?

Nope! Tried F/T first and they both refused. So, I had to run out and get live. Both slurped them up then! Next time I'll try one of each and see how it goes

Congratulations on getting them to feed. They're both marvelous looking snakes as well.

When you switch them over to f/t, get them on fuzzies because they look plenty big enough!!!

Thanks everybody!

Andy: Actually, I picked up a bag of 35 F/T for them . Champs been getting all the leftover F/T they've been refusing. They're only snacks for him. Last time he downed 5 mouse pinks and one rat pink. So, he's eating good!

Champ must be getting really chubby! That's one thing I will never do is buy pinkies in bulk, my corn is ready for fuzzies but i have 4 pinkies left, and I expect that kings can take a fuzzie at around the same age.
