The Feast.

S u n d a y , A u g u s t 3, 2 0 0 8
So last month when JT and his girl moved into a new apartment, they were told they couldn't house any "exotic pets." This meant they'd be forced to find a home for their beloved Reeses the snake. Sure enough, I got suckered into giving the young gun a roof, and while I can barely feed and take care of myself, I was told there were no feeding requirements and all I'd have to do is turn a light on and off every morning and fill the water up once a month. Seemed simple enough.

For food, the snake enjoys one serving size of a whole mouse every month. Sorry to everyone who requested a heads up for when the feeding would take place, but I figured I'd capture it on film as a last resort. The plan of attack is pounce the mouse, strangle it to death, and lastly eat it all in one go. Kinda impressive I guess. I haven't seen this much throat skill since.....

[Warning -- Fairly graphic if you're into animal loving and that stuff.]

And just the tail remaining. Good work.
