    I decided to leave the f/t mouse in her enclosure after she struck at it and when I came back later it was gone.
    She has done this twice now.
    Anyone have any insight on this behavior?
    Sometimes they like to be left alone when they're eating.
    It is okay to use pine bedding for snakes.
    It is okay to feed live food to snakes.
