    And two years later, this thread resurfaced again!

    So I guess it is a tradition now!

    Yzma has grabbed them oddly a few times. She will try to eat arm first or neck first and then spit it out and try again until she gets it. I usually stick around u til she gets the head down, just to be sure she's alright and then I let her be.

    I make sure to offer the correct size head first. Once they grab it, I leave it to them to figure out. If they want to eat, they will eat.
