I've read about people having issues feeding these guys, but I find that surprising since my girl's like a garbage disposal on steroids.

I agree I have never had issues with feeding. I've only owned one though.

Re: My suprise acquisition
Pretty baby!
My bloods are incredibly slow eaters now that I have upped their prey size. When they were on rat pups, they'd strike/coil/eat straight away. Now that they are on weaned rats, I just set their feeders in a bowl with them and they take their time before they eat.. usually an hour or two! Yours looks about the same size as mine, far as I can tell with nothing to compare it to.

Slow eaters is right. Mines on jumbo rats right now. Woot. She's getting sooo fat.
