Funny/ horrifying feeding story's

[Coldblood]

So I wanted to start a thread about feeding gone wrong. I don't really mean wrong for the snake. Have y'all ever had a mouse escape while feeding or bite you. My story today is a little of both

today was feeding day. It started out fine the mouse wiggles his way on top of the tongs and lunged on to my shirt(always handle mice with a shirt on) he crawled up my shirt and made his way to my back where he spent the next few minuets pooping all over my back and trying to bite down on my back but just got my shirt. After about 10 mins of trying to find him I got him and grabbed him. Since I couldn't see where I was grabbing him I ended up with my pinky and ring finger by his mouth. He took a big old chomp out of me and I got him free from that one he bit down on the other. What a nice day.


Next week ill get pre-killed. On the bright side baron(my ball) is getting big!

whats your feeding gone wrong story

My bee has the most aggressive feeding response of any ball I've seen. When there are F/T in the room he will literally strike at the tub wall for no reason. On more than one occasion he has hit the rat so hard as I open the tub that it breaks off the tail or foot and the feeder drops into the tub. This results in him completely unregistering the rat as food and hanging out of the tub striking in my general direction repeatedly. I have to use a paper towel tube to bonk him on the head gently and try to knock him out of it / push him back in the tub.

He has also struck so hard out of the tub that he launched himself over the lip and down to the floor.

Last week my pewter struck and coiled and only caught the tip of a foot. I just kept thinking 'catch a tiger by its toe'. Then the foot slipped out of her mouth and she just sat there with the body coiled and her mouth not clamped down on anything but holding her head like she was. It was pretty derpy...

Love it my ball is pretty aggressive feeder smelled it today and about bit when I opened the feeding tub. Just finished shedding yesterday and he was hungry. Between him striking at me and the mouse chomping down and drawing blood it was a stressful feed for me lol. My ball is a good hunter though lunged bit down behind the neck and snapped its neck instantly. Only had one feed where he missed. I like when he kills them quick don't like when the mouse suffers. Don't want him hurting baron either

Sometimes my bee coils without ever biting the rat, and kills them successfully this way

and then this incredible derpiness from my albino male. "I gots da foot, herrr derrr!"

When my baby was still a baby, I used to put the f/t rat in a yogurt tub, after warming it, and just leave it in there. When she got too big to really get in that tub with the rat, I decided that I would put the rat on a lid and lower it in there. Well, she struck the lid (umm, yeah, that was my fault) and didn't see the rat, which had fallen under her. At which point I called my husband in the room to retrieve the rat...better him than me, right? He got it and as soon as he lifted it up, she struck! For the first time!
Now, as soon as I get the hair dryer out she waits at a 45 degree angle to the top right of the tank. She knows that's where I open it! Ha!

Great story's love it. The foot got me going Rollin and there smart critters as soon as I open his feeding container he sits with his head in the corner of the tub. Everyone asks me why I have a pet snake and say they don't have a personality like cat or dog.... I say bull. Baron has one hell of a personality

I feed live, and I have a serial killer snake. First time he killed the rat and left it. Then the next murder he killed the rat, drowned the rat (I actually saw him move his coil up and dunk the rat in the waterbowl while it was still alive) Then he left it dead in the waterbowl...now it seems like every third feeding or so he will kill the rat and just leave it. He's not an aggressive snake, never bit...but dang man, what a psycho I now remove the water bowl when feeding him...as that was just nasty

Another boy grabbed the tongs with the rat once (back when I was still feeding F/T) and I had to leave the tongs in the tub until he was done because he was coiled so tight I couldn't remove them...

thees are hilarious, one my big girl April was feeding on a large frozen but grabbed it in the middle and dragged it in her water bowl like three times left it then when i went back to wiggle it again she exploded out and grabbed it by the butt an hour later she finally ate it, it was so crazy!
