    I'm shocked to hear that you still have infernalis not feeding... Little demon snakes when they smell food.

    The feeders are true monsters . I have to be very much on my toes to feed those groups.

    All of the 'feeders' progressed to 'fish only' from 'worms n fish today'. . Non-feeder list is still 5 infernalis, 1 parietalis but only 1 radix now (the dwarf).

    Special little story for today - One of my students approached me about a month back about whether a snake would be a suitable thing for her son. He's 7 years old and I mulled it over for a little while. He has his mother's full support so I started coaching her on snake care and got the bits and pieces together.
    They came to visit. Now, this was simply a visit to a cool place as far as the son was concerned. He's snake made and made a good job of interacting with the adults. Then I tested his interaction with one of the babies. Also very encouraging.
    Well yesterday I dropped of a fully equipped viv at their flat when he wasn't there and today the most confident parietalis male of the litter went to make this young man happy. We fed it together after a short handling session and I left the family glued to the enclosure after a little chat.
    It makes me remember that I started to go snake daft around that time in my life ... although my mother always said 'no' to my yearly request of a snake for my birthday
    Keeping - 'Florida blue' sirtalis, concinnus, infernalis, parietalis, radix, marcianus and ocellatus.
