Shlegs and punics are the most beautiful treesvipers on the world - in my mind even all arboreals are my faws. So many colour variations and their attitude ...
These once eats well, but I had 2 litlle once witch wouldn´t eat well and died later - I think that force feeding is not an answer for eating problems speaking of this specie - sad but true: only healthy and stong ones will survive.
I feed these still once a week with small mices ... even they would go well with "big" mices or rat fuzzies (?) every two - three weeks. I don´t want them to get "fatted" - they live much more longer and healthy with "low fat diet".
There are enough CB´s available from so many different bloodlines that there is no reason to get WC´s ... for anybody

I feed mine a little less often- I agree they need little and not to often because of the high fat content in mice in comparison to the frogs/small lizards they are designed to eat! They're not overly active either Very Happy

Mine are not good feeders at present. Hopefully they will be more enthusiastic outside of breeding season...
