    Talking Update and New Baby

    Hey everyone,
    just thought I'd do a quick update on everyone. It's been very busy over here. All my ribbons have been super hungry lately and with the newest addition, (the skinniest baby in the photos) things have been extra crazy! The newest baby who I named Junior was found and caught a week ago outside by the water faucet. For being a tiny squirt Junior put up a fight! Angel, the other baby, has given his first shed for me and just a bit rounder. Angel and Junior have gotten along very well and are together all the time. I often wonder if they could be siblings. It's almost been a problem with them always together. I'm highly considering separating them for feeding. Two days ago when they were eating Junior and Angel grabbed the same fish and were nose to nose. Managed to get them apart before one or the other swallowed one other. I was just greatful I was in the room at the time. All the pictures show Angel and Junior.

    Singapore, the largest, has also grown. Of the six ribbon snakes Singapore has been the hungriest. She will eat and eat and eat. I was astonished that she ate a fuzzy then two days ago ate over six fish. She would have ate more had I let her.
    BJ is still alone his tank. He doesn't seem to mind. He and Singy are the only two who don't seem to mind being by themselves. With everyone eating they all have experienced growth spurts. She's very thick. I really believe that she will pass the record length.
    Wesley and Charlie are still together. Wesley, Charlie, and Angel all appear to shut down when alone. It's very interesting. But otherwise everyone has done well. Try and post pictures of everyone elso soon!

    Beautiful snakes you have there. Do you feed fuzzies on a regular basis? I've heard that it's not such a good idea because the fur could cause problems.
