My male was a great eater, hit rats on first try. Now he is striking and not hitting the rat repeatly. I just tried to feed him and he attempted to hit at least six times and although he hit the rat he released. This has just started in the last month. I placed a small mouse in with him he missed the first time but then hit and coiled. I am leaving the rat in there for another fifteen minutes or so. He had a great shed about a week or so ago.
He seems to know where the prey is but when he strikes he hits and releases
