Very strange? quick question

Hey every one, got a quick question.

My ball is normally a very good eater.

I just dropped a large mouse, Admeral went for it and did a semi little coil. He has a nice bite on the back end of the mouse. its been about 10 min and the mouse is still alive. He is like savoring the taste but not killing the mouse...


If that makes sense.

so to sum it up. He is semi coiled on the mouse nice bite in the back but not killing it.

Hard to say. You might just have to wait it out. Your snake will either stop or the mouse will die eventually.

Is there any way that you could separate the two of them safely?

Thanks for the reply.

I might be able to i haven't tried he is still just chilling with the mouse in his mouth with the semi coil. Should i sep?

Separating them would be a last resort for me, as all parties could potentially get hurt. I would give them some more time, but if nothing happens you might be forced to.

I agree, just watch them. You could try tugging on the mouses tail a little to stimulate a better coil as well...
