Powder, The mighty Shaka Zulu and a Jack Dempsey feeding
Hello everybody! well I got this weeks general feeding on film (this is excluding the big Savannah Monitor and my Leopard gecko) and it was pretty interesting. Mainly because my big male macklot's python shoots straight for my hand instead of the rat!
Notice he is attached to the part of the rat that would have been closest to my hand? thats because I managed to get the rat in his mouth, instead of my hand lol
And, I got some film of my new Jack Dempsey! He wasgetting little tiny pieces of hikari carnivore pellets from the surface right infront of me!!
He is totally bold! he will come to the glass to watch me and even attack at my fingers and general movement outside the tank.
Re: Powder, The mighty Shaka Zulu and a Jack Dempsey feeding
Try holding the prey lower to the floor of the enclosure - less likely to jump straight out then!! Pretty much any pet shop in the UK you can buy 12" tweezers which is what we use to feed ours.
