Coastal Carpets

That snake lived esp after that?!!

Which pic ya refering to ?
The first one is doing GREAT at this point now . The carpet python that is .. This is a recent pic of him ..



The second pic I posted was a ball python.. That one was still alive , even though half ot's head was exposed from the bites it received. It was brought into a pet / reptile shop and the owner was asking for help with it. The shop took it to the vet and had it euthanized as it was so bad it had lil chance of surviving. [I didn't take that specific one in personally but have permission to use the pics of it]

The ball is the one i am reffering to. That is a really nice carpet does it have the scars still?

we have a friend who has a beautiful albino burm named lucky. he was feeding her live prey when she was young and she lost her tongue. the mouse bit it off. we feed everything we own pre-killed. we invest too much in our animals to risk anything like that happening.

and cartman, say you throw a live mouse in the cage and the snake's in the process of having his feed and mouse bites, scratches, or gouges it, you're planning to do what? stick your hand in there with them and take it away...

HEy cnj !?

Would lucky be like an older snake now, whos about 10'+ in length, weighs maube like 80lbs etc ? AND She's residing at a reptile rescue atm in Alberta VA, has been for awhile but is going back to her owner in October this year ? hehe If so I know that snake, have met her personally and she is a GORGEOUS snake with a nice 'tude even.

On your other question in regards to the placing the hand in the cage...I doubt it ! Especially once the snake is more grown even.

I have been feeding live to other snakes without a problem (Other then my ball) i thin i will switch it freh killed thanks for all the information if u know more about anything involving carpets please let me know thanks

Lori,
Yes that's the one. &nbsp;The owner is a friend of mine actually, she is still at MRS and she has 3 more shows and she goes back. &nbsp;She is about 15' now and over 100lbs. &nbsp;The original owner, my friend, is the one that fed her the live prey when she had her tongue bitten off. &nbsp;You know it's kind of sad to see that little nub come sticking out of her mouth. &nbsp;He knows much better now, I do believe if I remember correctly he had a really hard time getting her on pre-killed. &nbsp;It's been so many years ago hard for me to remember.

YUP.. That be her &nbsp;<img src="http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''> &nbsp;I don't know her exact weight and length .. Have played with her but never picked her up at all while there. Yeah I heard that was a problem with her feeds for awhile there too. Also anytime a snake gets bit by a rodent , esp in feeding attempts, it most likely will also go off feds for awhile and is a MAJOR PITA to get back onto feeding too.
I have never met the owner of LUCKY but have met her though many times.
