    Great video - I've referred back to this video many times to help me with hatchlings. But the part about assist feeding an entire pinkie still eludes me. First of all, the hatchlings I have that are not eating are MUCH smaller than yours! Also, when I assist feed them they are squirming around like crazy and not nearly as calm as yours was. I can get them to eat a pinkie head, but not the whole pinkie. I'll keep trying, but getting an t=entire pinkie down their throat is not nearly as easy as you've made it look in my case...

    • @greenpython1224
      @greenpython1224  9 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Eddie, not all hatchlings are the same, some are calm, others nervous and aggressive, whilst other will do their best to regurgitate. I think if yours take pinkie heads, it's a matter of time (and perseverance) and they will take the whole body.

    Most of these comments are people that know nothing about snake's. Somebody really thought that 1. the casing was to small 2. That force feeding seems cruel (he's actually saving the animals life) 3.That feeding rats to a snake is wrong. What would you prefer them to eat, zucchini? I also saw a comment about him seemingly being a non experienced breeder, when I can quite obviously tell the man knows what he is doing.

    • @OvidiuDanBogat
      @OvidiuDanBogat 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      true ! :) I chuckled at "zucchini"... that'd be a sight :)) I imagined peopled buying shirts of the sort "my snake's a vegan". And yes, you can see he knows what he's doing. Especially with force feeding the snake. Getting it over with clean and smooth and as quickly as possible whilst not messing around. It's not a comfortable thing to do but you can't mess around doing it either if you absolutely have to.

    And this is the part I really hate about keeping snakes....feeding time, especially when you wind up having to dance the pinkie around to get an interest, lol. I didn't buy my feeders - we ranched our own, so there was an element of familiarity there, which made it a little hard for me. A PETA member once expressed outrage that I fed the snake "my little friends", and could I not train it to be a vegetarian...after spitting out the drink I had just choked on, I explained that I never fed the snake my friends, just the ones that pissed me off...she had absolutely no sense of humor ;)

    • @skull.b2487

      I kid you not, she was serious! Somebody dragged me down to some local fund raiser for PETA - back then, I always had my rat - Charlie Parker - riding on my shoulder, and she came over and we started chatting...until she found out about my snakes, lol...if only Charlie had pee'd on her - but no, he was too much of a gentleman ;)

      @rushthezeppelin 8 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      +Zod Iac Breast alone does not contain much besides protein. Snakes (well most anyway) really need organ meats and bones for all their mineral needs. This means whole prey is the best course of action. Plus for many snakes rodents are their main natural prey anyway. Mice and rats are also the cheapest fairly nutritionally complete animals to breed generally speaking (why do you think mice are used for lab experiments) so it's a pretty obvious choice for most. Another option is quall.

      I find that snakes need a sense of freedom. If Waylon Slithers (Yes. Really.) is going to spend the rest of his life in a box then he at least deserves to be treated to a live rat or mouse every now and then. Otherwise I'm just taking away the last thing he could hope for while in the box. It's not that I like live feeding, I just like my snake to be a happy boy.

      @CCompanyBot 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@dudelivestrong I'd recommend against feeding alive unless there's some certain circumstances like your snakes used to eating live since they were a baby or a juvenile. Otherwise you should probably do frozen because live can harm your snake if they choose not to eat.
      But that was three years ago so I'm gonna leave this here for anyone who needs to know it

    Excellent video Green Python. Great demonstrations of assisted and forced feeding. Thankfully I've never had the resort to either measure, but I also don't have many snakes. Friends have though, and I've heard it can be a difficult experience. I wish they would show this video in every pet shop before someone buys their first snake so buyers would be better prepared to determine wether a snake was the right pet for them.

    OK, I admit I'm somewhat squeamish about feeding baby rats/mice (alive or dead) to snake hatchlings ... BUT these snakes, young as they are, are utterly beautiful. Plus there is certainly no shortage of rats or mice on the planet!!! A VERY interesting video.

    • @cakebuu887
      @cakebuu887 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Cake Cawley oh you wanna talk about logic? Alright so tell how can i tell that someone is always joking on the internet? Because we cant see physical emotions. Thats exactly why this is happening. Tbh i just thought you were dumb as fuck and still do. By your logic you're telling me its my fault for taking you seriously and also i hate to talk about the topic logic. Because people are dragging in words that i've never said. Just like you did "you didnt use a joke you said got a lazy snake? Just shove the dinner down its throat he doesnt even chew" ok thats okay but when i took you seriously. Your comment was so ignorant it almost made me puke.

    @atlasnox9469 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you very much for this video! I'm looking into become a hobby breeder and the forced/assist feeding bit was very educational. I never want to have to resort to that, but it's comforting that in case the situation arises, I know what to do.

    • @evilcowboy
      @evilcowboy 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you want to breed you have to prepare yourself for the need ot have to force feed because you will run into it. The assist feeding is a bit easier to do but still a pain.
      you also have to get ready for a worse case scenario. Any breeder will tell you there are just those special cases where despite all your best efforts the snake may die. Most of that is usually caused by some problem like the snake not fully absorbing the yolk of the egg before coming out or a parasite.

    • @TheOpelkoenjas
      @TheOpelkoenjas 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      evilcowboy Yep, ran into it too, with a fish eater not wanting to eat anything. Force feeding is scary, and it my case it did help. Healthy 5 year old snake now. ^^

    • @rushthezeppelin
      @rushthezeppelin 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Natsuo Yoji Some species it just doesn't work for generally though. Garters will generally crash if you force feed them. Of course the are an ovoviviparous snake that sometimes will produce very large litters of toothpick bobble heads (presumably as a survival mechanism of putting out pure numbers).....it's almost invariable when you get a 30+ litter that some are going to be failure to thrive no matter what you do, they just lost the genetic lottery.

    I don't know if this will make any of you feel better or worse, but pinkies have hard lives even without snakes. I once had a mouse give birth to about 5 of them. I handled them all, then put them back with their mother. Not one to take care of someone else's babies, she bit off the tops of each of their heads and ate out their little brains. Happy Monday!
