Interesting, Pat. Susan read that the snake shouldn't be fed in the terrarium, so that it won't bite when you reach in. Comforting, huh? So we used a plastic box instead.
Ok... So I thought the actual getting of a snake and keeping it in the terrarium was enough for me but the feeding! Yikkes! Of course they need to eat but... It is one more reason I am glad that I don't have a snake. :)
Okay... So I was all super proud of myself on account of I held that thing unaided for eight minutes and two seconds all in a row. We timed it. Cept after those images... I'm not so sure when the next time will be that it happens.
Also I had pretty much the creepiest dream of my life about this snake last night. I dreamed that this snake grew (over the course of about one week) to be about 6 inches in diameter and it was like 5 million feet long. It was very scary. Then when I asked Susan why it grew so fast she said that those little frozen mice were very nutritious, so she had started eating them too. SICK!!
Cool eh? I took a video too. I'll put it up as soon as I figure out how to do it.
Very cool. The people we bought our snakes from told us to feed them in a paper bag so we don't often see the actual eating all that well.

ReplyDeletesnakes are fun...although i do think that i would pass on the video. i have seen it enough times and feel sorta bad for the prey.
ReplyDeletebut it's already dead anyways! I think it is kind of interesting to see reggie eat.
