Our 2 ate for the first time last night, apparently they were revenous and gobbled down their pinkies, I think they will be moving up to fluffs in January. I missed all the fun, I was fighting my way around Asda trying to get the Crimbo shopping done! Sad

Hey Lynne, yeah that's what I'd planned to do, I bought enough fuzzies to keep them going over the christmas period etc, so they will have 1 a week for 4 weeks. Apparently I was told when I collected them that it won't be too long before they are ready for fuzzies. In fact the snows first meal was a fuzz, I think they were short of pinks, and she ate it. She's going to be just like my daughter I think, if it's there eat it Laughing

Ethan was thrilled with his corn, altough he hasn't held him yet as it's like a rocket on bonfire night Laughing

But he was really chuffed with being able to feed his own snake. I've told him that it's all part of my grooming process for when he's older Twisted Evil

I've decided to move their feeding to every 5 days and as soon as I think they are ready I'll get them moved up to fuzzies. I need to see them eat for myself anyway, but will probably move them up to 2 pinks for a while after christmas if they appear to be looking for more food Very Happy

I thought it was about time I introduced them, and subsequent to Petes sugestion that the best way to photograph corns was with a stapler handy, I've found a better way. Feed em first Laughing

My Daughters Snow Corn Izzy

My Sons Amel Corn Aang

This is what the Fuji can do Lynne, with the macro turned on and the flash, although not the best example of it's abilities, but it will give you an idea. I had to take them through the Faunarium though, if i'd got them out they would hae been best please and done a prompt dissappearing trick Laughing

Ang Just finishing off his pinkie Very Happy

Izzy was already digesting hers, and they both thing they are GTP's I think, they are loving their new upgrades, the poor cresties are now minus some decor! Laughing
