So I wanna start off by saying do some of you have those indecisive ball pythons ? the ones just require extra patience (one time acting interested another time acting scared) and you have to like battle it out by dangling the prey sometimes close or sometimes little bit far and just hold on to it until it finally decided to strike.
Another thing is so last night I was feeding my ball python, I know for constrictors they coil up their prey but this time I noticed something different. So my Mojave simply just bit on the side and just took it without the coiling up part. I fed it twice and both times he did it without coiling.
Side note: He usually coil up like all the time but last night was different. And when he would coil up for me I don't move the prey little bit to pretend its alive I just let it have it.
Maybe its cuz he learned that he doesn't have to constrict the food ??
