Re: Adrien ate! (pics)

not trying to be cheeky mate but he will eat a lot larger prey items

what age is he ?

small or most likely large weaner rats would do him fine

a carpet can take 2,3,4 times their girth in prey with no problems what so ever

very nice carpet you have there

cheers shaun

Re: Adrien ate! (pics)

i was thinking the same thing actually that they were too small. The breeder i got him from said he eats this size mice. i could try larger ones next time im just glad he ate honestly!

Re: Adrien ate! (pics)

Now that you know he is an eater i would try switching him to rats now, you will need to at slme point and imo the earlier the better. Just for a comparison my 18month old JCP last ate the same size rat as my 18month old SD retic, you WILL be shocked the size they take.

Oh and also have to say that is a VERY beautiful snake!!!!

That is one gorgeous snake. Just wait till he color up more the yellow will be neon. I still say it's a Jungle x Jaguar. The marking scream Jaguar.

No you got one hell of a deal. Jags start out at $300.00 on up to $700.00. So you not only got a very beautiful snake, but you got the deal of the year.
