So we decided to pick up a little mouse today for him to eat. Bring it home throw it in the tank. Soon as it hits the aspen the snakes head is out his hide like YUM! He spots the mouse on the other side. Mouse runs around the hide right into the snake. Boom hits it. Mouse was in there no longer then 30 sec's tops. Well when he had it seemed like he struggled a bit to kill it. Wasn't all that quick.
When he constricted it it kinda ran his feet along his body not to much tho. Well what i was worried about was his mouth.. The entire time he has him rapped up the mouse was opening his mouth and closing it and stuff. Almost trying to bite him. The mouses head was to high up couldn't bend it down to bite so all went well.
Question is how long should it take him to kill it once he hits it? Took the little guy around like 30 secs - a min
Once he got it almost down i went and ran to store. Well when i got back i opened the tub lid to make sure he finished it well. Well soon as i opened it he stuck his head out the same exact way he did before he hit the mouse. What would that mean? Im sure the little guy cant be hungry lol the mouse was a nice size for him.
Edit* Ment to put this under general bp now BP Husbandry sorry
