Great picts, thank you for sharing!

One minor tip: some snakes get freaked out by being photographed while eating, and may back off their food. As you've noted Mayhem is picky about food anyway, you may want to let him eat in peace, at least until he's had four to six meals on his own.

Again, great shots!

Thanks for your reply Cliff , I know what you mean but i didn't put the camera up in his face i zoomed in from a distance but with the flash it was a red flash instead of a white flash , From now on i will wait until he has had four to six meals now until i get feeding pics of him but is it ok to take random shots of him when he is not feeding ?

Edited : Spelling .

Thanks Oscar for your reply , I don't think the shots are that good but thanks i think they would have been better if i didn't have to zoom in from a distance the camera is a panasonic lumix 14.1mp.

LOL the poster thing thats what my miss's drawed out for his box when she got board but i think it looks alright on it plus gives him bit of privacy as well.

Thanks his colouring is awesome i got first pick from the whole clutch of males and females so i chose the brightest male they had and the brightest female from the clutch .

He is eating a Ratpup , the pics of where he is eating on the rock is a small ratpup weighing at about 7g and then the pics where he is eating the ratpup from his flowers are weighing at 10g to 13g .

Awesome feeding pictures. It certainly looks like he is enjoying his meals. Great shots of him in the blue, too. That is exactly how Marius looks when he is in the blue. I'm about to share some new ones of him, since he just shed the other day. Anyway, congrats on him eating!

I agree , i am amazed at how good they still look whilst still in shed , I love Marius he looks sexy just commented on your thread and waits to a reply , He does enjoy his meal once he has it in his mouth but otherwise he is just fussy i have made a new topic of Bow and Mayhems feeding record and you will see the differance in them both lols ..

Pretty much the same comments as on the last one...you'd almost think they were related. ;-)
