    Live prey can sometimes cause a good feeding response.
    It it works quickly drop in some other food in the hopes it will get grabbed also.

    Re: Emily's Snake Thread

    Proximus gives this idea a thumbs up... Metaphorically speaking that is I got him seven feeder guppies yesterday. He ate three yesterday and he's eaten two more today. I'm waiting to see if he'll eat the others. I think I might put them in a smaller container for him.

    Good job Proximus. Oh and you too Emily.
    Glad to see the live fish did their thing.

    Happy to hear Proximus is eating again. It's crazy when critters that eat their meals, and leave nice piles of poop make us happy.

    Re: Emily's Snake Thread

    There was a slight miscount. Somehow I missed a couple while counting(how can they hide in a circular water dish?!). He only ate the three from the first day. But I'll give it a couple of days and try again with a smaller bowl.

    Re: Emily's Snake Thread

    Today I had Tallie out and decided to let her and Proximus have a face to face supervised meeting. They have both been all alone for quite a while so I wanted to see how they would each react outside of the glass. This is what happened P5130546.jpg I just let them hang out for a few minutes while I watched them. So that leads me to my question: Can two males be housed in a 20 gallon(normal, not long) comfortably? Tallie and Proximus are female and male of two different species and can't live together, but I'm think it's time for a roommate for Proximus
