    constricting without biting first ?

    Well, this was just weird.

    I offered my Pastel Enchi female her FT rat and she got closer and closer, super interested and then calmly threw a loop around the rat and then another one. But she never struck or bit down. Just constricted.

    She has never done this before.

    Weirdo...

    I've had some do that. Also had some wrap a feeder without biting it first.
