Hehe I'll beleive that no probz. One time while feeding our Cali King f/t i was lowering the mouse down into his enclosure and he shot his midsection out of the substrate andused it to pin the f/t mouse to the side - mashing it up against the glass, he held it there immobilized for a few and then leisurely brought his head up above ground mosied on up and ate it pretty as you please.
