I picked up my new baby on Sunday and set him up at home. He seemed to settle in rather well so last night i decided to give him his first meal with me.

I offered him a f/t pinkie rat and he definitely showed interest. He struck at it 9 times, hitting it every time but not holding on or wrapping the pinkie up!

I thought maybe the prey was too small so I offered him a fuzzie rat and got the same results!!

Do boa moms teach their babies how to hunt and he didn't catch on or is something else going on? Anyone have any ideas for a way i can get him to hold on?
