Ok so here's the deal....I have a python that I have tried several times to convert over to frozen Thawed, with no success. he looks at it, looks at me like im an idiot and just walks(slithers) away.
on the other hand he will snatch a live rat in mid air without hesitating. Very Strong feeder...
After viewing the pics that BigPaPaErnest posted on here of the snake that got chewed up by a rat( i never leave live feeder unsupervised) I said that he's not getting anymore live food...
Ok so here we go:
I presented warm frozen/ thawed to him in his feeding tank. I dangled it perfect, the temp was perfect.....and once again no taker's...
Fix:
I put him back in his encloser to calm down for a couple minutes. I grabbed my multi tool and squished the rats head to make sure all the good stuff was exposed. and dangled it in front of his hide. He hit it twice(defensive) and I let it sit in front of his hide...I couple minutes later i came out and he was smelling it... a couple hours had passed and nothing....I went to sleep, woke up and it looks like he had the midnight munchies. Because the rat is gone and he looks like me after dinner at my favorite steak house..."Bloated and motionless"
just thought i should share this experience....
