    Exclamation good and bad news

    GOOD NEWS-My thamnophis sirtalis that I was previously force feeding is now taking food that I barly put in his mouth.I know that it's still force feeding but it's a less tramatizing experience for the snake thats being fed because now it dosn't try to spit it out.

    BAD NEWS-My other thamnophs sirtalis died.but I kind of expected it to because it had a deformed mouth

    Sorry one died, but it sounds like you're making really good progress with the other one. It's only a small step now from 'assist feeding' to the snake feeding for itself. Good luck.
