Amazing job on that tail, Wayne! Any trick to getting the babies to eat out of your hand? That would be so much fun! Probably takes about the same amount of time as feeding them in a separate container which I'm going to have to start doing soon anyway Pretty cool swimming pool, too

Pick them up slowly and when they are no longer startled by your presence. approach them from underneath and kind of scoop them up, instead of grabbing from above. as long as they are not feeling threatened, they should eat!

It's called "tease feeding" I hold the fishy by the tail, and coax the head of the fish in front of the snakes face.

It's FASTER than transferring them Just pick them up one at a time, feed and return them.

about half the baby snakes take food for me this way.

Just last night "Lurch" the wee little butlers ate from my hand, it was cool.

Great pictures, Wayne!
Love the swimming pool -- very cool!!
And Carmella's tail looks good, must have been a pretty nasty wound for a while. Good job with her.
I've been having some success getting my nervous little Sweetpea to eat from my hand. She totally freaks out in the feeding bin, so it's the only thing that works. But she still won't eat very much each time, and she'll stop completely if she gets startled, so it's a constant battle.
