PostSubject: Feeding DRC squamigera CH09 ...   Sat 11 Apr - 2:29

Aloha Venomland , Today I am feeding 9 of the baby DRC squamigera , it was taking 90minutes to feed 9 babies 2 pink parts each.
Here's the pictures , also thanks to Derek Morgan for his experience and advice on the feeding.
Some of the babies I need to lift into the air to feed after striking otherwise they are dropping the item and running.

Cheers
Andrew

They look great Andrew! That's interesting that you're lifting them to keep them from dropping the food. That's something that I have never tried. Well, you shouldn't need tricks for long because once they figure out that you're bringing food they will become little chompers. Just give them a few feedings and they will be champs. Great job man!

LOL Derek!

Great snakes, I am an admirerer of those squams. Rather aggressive little critters, right?

Cheers,
Guenter

I am a bit biased, Guenter, since this is my favorite species, but their personalities are wonderful to me. They are mean and aggressive usually, but they are not usually insanely so. They don't just strike wildly and repeatedly like some mean species do (ceratophora or some Echis come to mind), but you definitely know to stay out of their reach because you will pay the price if you enter it. I always know where I stand with these guys because they have no respect for me, and I am okay with that. They are like bulldogs.
