today rocky had a little trouble and so did i with the mouse i was going to feed him.It was an adult mouse . When i got it home i tried putting it right from the pet carrier thingie into a plastic baggie so i could whack him but the thing jumped out !! but lucky for me he actually landed right into the feeding tank. so i stuck my baggie in there and the mouse went crazy running around and trying to jump out but i somehow got him into the baggie and had to whack him really hard twice becuase he ddint seem to want to become snake food.With all this exitment goin on rocky starts to strike at his tank and act really exitied,he almost bit me when i tried taking him from his tank to the feeding tank.anyways ....so i hold the thing by the tail in front of rocky's head and of course he strikes and "suffucates" the already dead mouse but then he had a really hard time swallowing the mouse,2,3,4 minutes go by and now im getting worried that he is just going to give up becuase he was trying to swallow it from the side and i knew that wasnt goin to work so i tried to adjust the mouse so he could find where its head was and i guess he thought it was alive becuase he wrapped even tighter around it,he eventually got it down,thank god


just thought i would share
