Lazy Ball Python!!
Anybody else's ball ever do this? Threw a rat into his bin last night and the rat made a dash straight at the snake and tried to hide underneath one of Dimetri's coils. Dimetri immediately started constricting!! Brought his head around and just watched the rat die. Never even attempted to bit it! It was too funny!!!

I have strike happy snakes myself (only when food is around) so no. But it would be strange to just watch the snake watch the rat die with that silly little grin the BPs have. O_O Dark humor is dark.

Never had this happen personally... One time though, my big normal female decided she didn't feel like striking. The rat was cowering in the corner of the tub and she slithered up next to the rat and rather than coiling, she just crushed it against the side of the tub...

HAHA! Too good. My snake hasn't done that, but one time she DID strike and constrict FOUR times. Just over and over again. Apparently the mouse needed to be punished.

My BPs disapprove highly of your BPs' barbaric nature. *Snooty, high brow scoff*
