First feed!

Hey guys, today was feeding day for my BRB, first time feeding him and oh was I nervous! The little hopper seemed so big compared to him, guess just the difference between my milk and her little fuzzies compared to my rainbow getting this down. But it took a little convincing for him to get it but he coiled it right up and "killed" it. He's been trying to find a way to position himself for the last 5 minutes even thought he was a carpet python and tried eating it, being up in his plant with a vertical swallow! But he's taken it into his hide, hopefully in the morning it's all gone!

Nice! I love it when they drag their prey into the hide... creepy.

Lol yeah it made me chuckle when he did that!

And yeah I was hoping he would have ate it in the tree! Would have been cool!

What cracks me up the most is when you never see the snake at all...you just offer the prey near the hide, feel a strike...then watch as the body is slowly dragged inside by an unknown force.... ;-)
