ok, last night the snake kept me up most of the night, he was borrowing under his hide, coming out the back then hed go around the cage and up towards the lid ( 20 gal long tank ) then go back and dig out from under his hide again, at one point he looked over at me and yawned, I had been feeding him on Sundays the past three weeks so Im thinking he is hungry, it was mothers day and I didnt get up to get him a rat yesterday but i did it right after work today, came home got him out of his hide, took the log out and put in the rat, the snake struck at the rat about three times but didnt grab it. then yawned again and opened his mout about half way a couple of times, then he and the rat had a stare down, the rat in the corner and the snake in the middle of the cage for about 20 minutes, then I took the rat out and put the hide back in and now hes in his hide. any guesses to whats up with this snake? he's a little over two years old I believe and my nephew said he never had a problem feeding him.
