This statement boggles my mind. Boids just seem so much stronger than colubroids in general. I would have never expected a corn to pull it off. Of course, my only colubroid is a little corn snake only 18" long. :)

yeah that happend to me the other day. i was thawing out a fuzzy for Ali and i forgot to turn the water off. so it pushed the mouse down to the bottom of the container of HOT HOT HOT water and it was pinned. i came back in one min and there was a gnarly whole in the stomach of the mouse. you could see inside of the mouse completely. it was super gross. but Ali being the best feeder i have ever had ate it with no hesitaton!

yea my corn is about 4 and a half foot maybe 5 hes full grown albino corn that i rescued and when he eat he coils his whole body around the prey and squeezed ive seen it to where the eyes actually popped out of the socket. its fun to watch if you dont have a squemish stomach

So maybe it is time to learn...what is the difference...what are they Boids and Colubroids.

corns are colubrids though they do constrict. ball pythons and your boas are part of the boid family

I see so they're more slender but they can put on more coils to make up for it.

No, he changed it twice that day. He had JUST changed the water, fed the rat and it bled into the water, so he had to change it twice that day.

Ouch that must have hurt a lil!
You must have a very strong squeezer!
