Tonight my 240gm BP ate a 30gm mouse (the smallest rats I can find locally are 50gm, so I am feeding her an adult mouse every 4 days until she passes 300gm, which she will soon, she is growing like crazy despite the prey being on the small side for her.) She only eats f/t but I always supervise to make sure everything goes ok (and because it is awesome to watch.)

After the tail went down, she perched her neck up on her water bowl like normal (she likes to elevate herself while she realigns her jaws **shrug**) but instead of yawning, she opened her mouth and "coughed" and a hiss came out. She did it three times. I have only heard her hiss once when I had to get her out of her hide one time in the middle of the day and she wanted to part of it and she actually hissed at me. Jerk. But this was different, the only way I can describe it as a little cough but with a hissy noise. Anyone seen that before?
