Tiger rat snake feeding
Like 1 Dislike 0 Published on 13 Nov 2016
This is a feeding of my Tiger Rat Snake (Spilotes pullatus). He is a bit shy, and somewhat cage-aggressive (you will notice his defensive tail wiggle). In this video you will get to see him eat 2 frozen and thawed african soft-fur rats (he normally eats three, but I fed him one just prior to filming. You may notice the bulge...) He is typically fed every 7-10 days, but he was a bit behind schedule owing to a shed I had to wait for him to finish.
His cage is a tall arboreal cage fitting for his species. This morning when I went to feed him, he happened to be on the floor of it.
