When something "clicks" inside the animal and you are no longer a big scary monster or they finally realise eating is a good thing. I had a normal male I force fed for two years in the shop whom I took home and managed to get strike feeding.

When he first struck I felt like bursting into song.

The little things non-snake keepers never even consider - like, last night, my big female had me in stitches by farting long and loud then giving me a totally innocent look when I opened the tub to check on her.
