bladesparkSo you recall when I said Anthonly wasn't inclined to ball up? I've found something that makes him do so. Wiggling a dead mouse at him.
Yes, Anthony is terrified of his dinner.
*sigh*
I've quit wiggling it, in the hopes that if it's not scaring him he'll notice it's food, but right now he's just nosing at the feeding container around it, looking for a way out, and ignoring it. He's not half an inch from a warm mouse, he's due to eat today, but he can't seem to figure out that this is food. Eesh.
Edit: Because apparently I need to say this - I was relating an amusing anecdote here. NOT asking for advice in feeding snakes. If I did wish advice on feeding snakes, this post would have contained phrases such as "Does anybody have any suggestions?" or "What should I do about this?" As it does not, it is safe to assume that I do not wish advice, since if I had wanted advice, I would have asked for it.
