    Baby Dekayi

    Well...

    I put a worm and a nice slug in with him... nothing... until I looked at him tonight... some nice bulges in his belly and nothing left in there with him.

    Great news, Peter.
    Keep shoveling it in. They are hungry all the time.

    I love it when they get a belly full and you can see the white between their scales.
    For a plain snake they are also beautiful. Dekayis rock!

    I'm sure you'll have him eating out of your hand in no time once he realizes it's you who puts the food in there!

    Yup! ^^^Pretty much that right there, though mine is a little slow. He'll test every finger on your hand first to see if it's possible to eat you before settling on the slug or worm!
