Re: Bulls and Kings

What camera do you use? I'm gunna start saving up for an Olympus TG-3 camera. I've been reading that they take some of the best macro shots.

I used a Nikon D-90. It's an older camera but it takes decent pictures.

Alright, well it certainly looks like it gets the job done!

Re: Bulls and Kings

Apollo weighed in at a fit and ready 465g before his last meal 2 days ago. He'll be 9 months old next week.


Sasha Fierce finally broke her fast. She had eaten only 4 times in 3 months over the winter but the warmer temps seem to have stimulated her appetite. She ate a jumbo mouse and a chick for her last meal. That was her first chick so I was pretty excited.

They will still rattle their tails or hiss a little if I startle them or come too close while they're eating but other than that they're both puppy dog tame.
Cool EL, they all look magnificent and healthy! And they all look like they don't play when it's dinnertime!!!!!! Lol

Thanks Albert. You're right, none of them are shy at feeding time. The kings strike much harder but the bulls eat more.

Al- I keep my bulls a little cooler than my kings. Their warm side stays around 82ish and the kings are kept at 86ish.

Re: Bulls and Kings

Ooooo, pretty! It seems we have the same taste in snakes. I like every species you have (that I've seen).
