What I find quirkie about my little BP is that she DOESN'T have any feeding quirks! LOL If it's a mouse, it's her's! She's a little garbage disposal and has never turned down food. I fed her two days after buying her and she ate like a champ. I can feed her right after handling her, during the day or night, I can stand there and watch her without her exhibiting any signs of stress. I usually hold the mouse's tail with a pair of needlenose pliers and dangle it in front of her. Once I dropped the mouse accidentally and she did hesitate for a second that time. As soon as it was on the ground though, she moved over to it, took one or two good sniffs, and attacked. She's a very outgoing, personable snake though--not very shy at all and is very relaxed with people. Considering she's a pet and not a breeder, I really lucked out with her! She really is the sweetest thing.
