Funny that you say this-
I have just one ball, I believe, male, he's 11. He just went hunger crazy from one rat, to 3 large every 2 wks.
This last time, as soon as I opened the door, he struck outside the cage!! 3/4 of his body was hanging which was coiling the rat of course. He was totally oblivious that he was about to drop out of the cage.
I had to lift him up and put him back in. He never lessened the grip on his prey.
Intense
