Hello people.

[guidofatherof5]

Is this the T.sirtalis you posted about earlier?

[Tarzier]

Nah, this was about my Striped Keelback.

Thanks for the clarification.
From what I understand about the species they do live a mainly fish diet but I think other things(pinkies) could be scented and introduced.
Does you snake feed off hemostats?

[Tarzier]

Hemostats?

If you have none(which it sounds like) I would be glad to send you a couple pair for free. I have more then I could ever use. Just PM me your name and address and I'll get them out in the post on Monday.

Ah,I don't need any. I've got something like that already, but he's afraid of it. Much easier for me to feed him the way I do now.

Which is?

I put his food on a flat surface outside of his tank, I pick him up and move his head over by the food. He eats while I hold him.

On a side note, whats a normal shedding rate?

It varies because of size, age, food intake, etc. It's impossible to put it on a calendar with any amount of certainty.
Sorry, I can't be more specific.

And even snakes you think you know will surprise you every now and then by going ahead or behind "schedule".
