JD, are you able to get the babies feeding?
I know that a lot has been written about the unique ocular developement in Ahaetulla, and apparently it plays a big role in how they hunt. I've heard that they are one of the very few snakes which is able to recognize a prey item by sight alone, even when the prey's motionless? If this is the case, how useful are their olfactory senses to them when they hunt?
Perhaps you could shed some light on this, since you keep a few and have experience with juvies, too.
That's a great pic, by the way. Hey, do their snouts become more elongate as they grow?
Keep up the good work!
Simon

hey can reconise food from sight. they seem to go after it when its moving though.
i got all the babies to eat. they feed off of fish really well. they dont catch the food like a garter would... they actually strike at the water, which i found really interesting.
I am not sure if there nose elongates as they grow. but i would asume so. these are my first babies . and i have 2 more gravid ones. so i am excited!
Thanks for the replys
Jordan

JD,
I'm really impressed with your success with them. This has traditionally been a problematic species for most keepers.
You should be very proud of yourself and your animals.
Will you be offering any future offspring for sale?
Take care,
Simon
