When you convert boomslangs to rats do you do the same as boids and dip the pinkie in chicken broth. Thanks, Naja

Hi Naja, In the boomslangs that I have kept mostly - wild caught - I have never used the "chicken broth method" My specimens usually take small mice after a while and some immediatly so. I have never had success with rats though the snakes always seem frightend even with newborn rats. Good luck Craig

Cool Man, There is nothing like the feeling of a doubtful specimen taking its first mouse. I am so happy for you. When can we see a pic of him/her? Gluck and keep well Craig
