It's been pretty boring around my house today. All the snakes have been lazily laying under their heat lamps, digesting their meals for the week, so I have been on serpent withdrawal.
Snakes take a substantial amount of time to fully digest their food. If someone moves them before they've had a chance to process it, they might throw their food up, which would not be pretty for me or for them. So I err on the side of caution when it comes to moving them after they've fed.
Topkapi is the exception. Isn't she always? Twenty-four hours after eating, she is ready to explore. So at least tomorrow I'll be able to handle her.
I checked today to see how CocoRosie liked her new shawl/blanket and she seems to be really enjoying it. She spent the day curled up under it, flicking out her tongue when I lifted the covering, to see who dared disturb her. She is such a bully. But as long as she's happy (and bullying me seems to make her quite happy) then everything is fine.
