So I just fed my slitherbaby for the first time. He was a very good eater--took out two pinkies(which were probably a little small. I'll go with a fuzzy next time), but he did something that alarmed me slightly. The second one? He just swallowed whole. While it was still alive. He didn't bother with restricting or anything. Just slithered right over to it's head, bit down, started gulping it down. Is this safe? The first one he restricted and did normally, but the second one he just seemed to be like, "Last time took longer and was a waste of time. Again, With FEELING!", but it worried me. I mean, sure, it's a pinky and I don't think it could do much damage, but is this something I should try to prevent, in the future? I don't think he could get away with that with a adult, but what about fuzzies, etc?

Edit: As soon as I get a webcam, I'll be sure to give you guys pics of him. He's absolutely gorgeous--I wound up getting him from Old World Pythons, at Mars.
