Massive meal

Massive meal

Postby Bushviper » Tue Jan 20, 2009 5:35 pm

I recieved a call out and went to go catch this house snake. She had attacked and eaten a huge rat. In captivity I would never feed her a meal that big. She digested it and before I released her she laid 12 eggs as well. This week they all hatched and will be released this weekend.

Awesome, pitty about the tails but that is life, are all the house snakes from Gauteng patternless?
