I had a few worms left over tonight so I decided to feed them off to my T.s.parietalis(Red Sided Garter) group.
My albino female is a worm vacuum so she was first up. After giving her the worm, Silver(het albino) shot out of the hide and grabbed the worm and her cage mate. I quickly separated them and found the blood flowing on the albino female. I grabbed my camera and took the first photo then grabbed a paper towel. It only took a few seconds to stop the bleeding, that's when I took photo #2.
It would have been the perfect time to get a blood sample for my microscope but I wasn't thinking about that at the time.;)
