    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Eaten Alive!!!!

It will be alright, not unusual at a young age. How big is the baby ball? How old? It might need a larger prey item, if the prey is too small.
 
I used to have adult blue beauties. They tended to eat live adult mice live. Just bit them and swallowed them. Luckily they also ate f/t and p/k so they didn't get live often, but it was an 'interesting' sight to see.
 
Thanks for all the input this was just very strange to see and after thinking about it this was a small fuzzy so that was probably it. But WOW did that kind of freak me out not that Im squeamish or anything just kind of wild to witness. He took F/T to nights later a little bigger and if it would have been alive it wouldn't have for long nice tight coil that made me feel better. All I could think at the time was not going to work when the prey gets bigger. But Thanks again for all the input!!
