    Talking Sooty Updates

    Yay Sooty ate his first pinky!!!! 6 to be exact!!!! he also had some tilapia!!!! he ate it all like he had nerer eaten before!!!! he struck at them unlike any garter i have ever seen!!!! He ate alot!!! Do snakes know when to stop eating???? or will they just eat and eat until who knows what happens??? also how can i ease his fear of sudden vibrations and movements???? Do any of your snakes act very calm one second and then be off the wall crazy the next???? is that a bad sign???

    Re: Sooty Updates

    Good for Sooty!!! He's obviously very hungry! They usually do know when to stop eating though, so I wouldn't worry too much. If he does get a little too much he will most likely regurgitate it, but chances are he just didn't eat a whole lot while he was outside, being that it was mating season and all. He probably had 'other things' on his mind!
    Just watch that he doesn't eat gi-normous meals too often, or you could end up with an obese snake!

    Re: Sooty Updates

    so sooty is getting fatter and more pregnant by the day and i've just increased her feedings to 2 x a week......... i've moved her to the 20 gal baby proof cage and the others to the kritter keeper........ which my big female, Meadow, hates by the way........ i've begun to get prepared for the babies which will come soon i hope and she's doing great......... but i was wondering............ could she possibly be one of Meadows babies???????? there anen't very many snakes in my yard and she seems to be about the same age as my 2yr old male...... and Meadow had 18 babies 2 without stripes just like her........ and i've never found one without a stripe...... and when i found her she never even struck at me or pooped on me.......... and we did hold the babies alot........... and.......... well.........
