that's crazy! I thought that python's eyes were gonna be bigger than its mouth, but nope!

Have you been to Denver's site, he has a white one that all BHPs would be measured by, there was also a bumblebee kicking about for a while here till some (insert inapproriate language) stole it and disappeared from the hobby before it could breed.

i've seen them chuck,the one i did NOT like the look of was the albino black head,it just did not look right at all

a right fugly snake it was

She seems to only want mice now. So, we give her large mice and she stuffs it down. We keep trying on the rats. I'm waiting her out right now to try a rat again. Plus she just shed, so maybe she thinks she's a big girl now (40 inches!)

imo the best way to get her on rats is to NEVER offer her another mouse

at first she will hold out looking for mice,but once hungry she should take a rat

try scenting the rat with a burst open mouse

or your going to need a huge amount of mice to feed an adult coastal mate

imo its always best to get carpet pythons onto rats as soon as possible.from the egg if you can

the older they get the harder it can be to cross them over from mice to rats

patients and perciverance is the key and never go backwards by giving in and offering a mouse.it just puts you right back to the start mate
