Are you feeding live or F/T?
F/T slightly heated up. I am sure he was underfed by his previous owner and the first few weeks i had him he ate super fast.
Are you feeding in his enclosure or outside of it?
In his enclosure.
Are you watching him eat?
I turn the lights down but I am in the room.
Does he coil round it or only strike but not hold on?
He only struck and didn't hold on.
This behavior started on friday when i put F/T mice in his cage because he is underweight and the pet store didnt have the right size for him. he smelled them both over and over and struck one then spit it out. he stayed in striking position and went back and forth smelling each for over an hour, but when i woke up in the morning they were still there.
