I fail at feeding snakes today. Dunno if it's the rats or if I'm warming up them wrong.

This makes me remember fondly the story of you indeed warming the rats up wrong and the fur coming off or some such thing. *g*

Well they've burst a couple of times when they were in hot water for too long :) Thankfully not that this time (although I was rather scared of it at some point, it sounded just like Ankh had managed to pierce the rat's stomach while trying to swallow it starting from the middle), the smell of rat guts is something atrocious... And sometimes the tailskin becomes too soft and kind of slides off when I try to dangle them from their tails... And tufts of hair do come off pretty often... Haven't managed to skin or shave a whole rat yet though :)

The third rat surprisingly was a charm this time around, finally got Hotep eating as well :) That's one picky snake...
