ok so back at the mo bug hunt chrispy (chris) caught a nice red milk snake. i ended up getting it off of him. everyone there said these are very hard to get to eat..well after about a month of having him(yeah him) i got it to eat a pinky(few hours old) and since has been a struggle to get him to eat. though he has eaten more he is finally getting easier to get to eat. he just devoured two few hour old pinkies..but he isnt quite good at killing them yet. hopefully he will learn quicker now...instead of constricting them he basically devoured them alive. haha..but maybe this little buzz tail wanna be will get better at it soon. what do you all think.(and i say a buzz tail wanna be, because he literally buzzes his tail..which is just very funny)

Its normla for them to swallow pinkies alive, as he grows and his food struggles more he will start to constrict.
