hahaha i always get so worried when they eat them backwards. one of my hatchling ate a rat pinky alive the other day. i scared me. i put it in there and came back in ten minutes and she had it 3/4 of the way down and it was still very much alive. hopefully she'll figure it out before she moves up to bigger prey.:) i was her first meal. nice pic:gj:

I can imagine ... Some people hold the live mouse with some forceps at its neck forcing the snake to strike at the head straight away ... You can always try to stun them too ..
