Mussurana

Some pictures of the new baby. She came in Wed. and had her first meal Friday.

Nevermind my last pm haha!! Nice pics man!!!! Has she eaten for you yet?

Wow I shoulda read the top your post...glad she ate :-)

I tried to feed my girl a smaller sized frozen thawed fuzzy mouse last night when I got home in a deli cup but she wast up for it. Hopefully though in a couple days she will be ready! How did you feed yours? Inside her cage or deli cup? Pinky or other?

I feed her in her enclosure. I gave her two days in her new environment to hang out. No handling her once I put her in there. Then i offered her warm f/t food and had no trouble. With mussuranas being so shy, you really have to eliminate as much stress as possible. Once they are comfortable they are eating machines. What type of enclosure is yours in? Photos?

I am gonna do the same and give her some chill time in her new place first. She defecated again last night so she should be ready for a bite here anytime I think. She has gone 2 times since I got her now so I think she is close to being cleaned out ha! Her enclosure is a sterilite 18 quart tub. I had a bigger one ready but decided to go grab a smaller one so she wouldn't be overwhelmed with space while acclimating. I'll move her up as she grows. I really like how tubs keep in the humidity better than my custom caging and have found all of my snakes to be better off since moving them to the tubs. I sure am liking the cleanup being so much easier now too haha! John also has his in tubs and said they work out great! So for now I'm gonna stick with that unless an issue arises in anyway.

Here's pics of my lady, my girlfriend decided to name her Kali

She's Pretty.

as is yours :-)

Baby just took her second meal. No hesitation with this one. Yours is gonna do the same i'm sure.
