    Re: alien chestburster? but seriously that can't be her heart beating ...right?

    I'm just saying I've seen something very similar in my animals when they are stressed or excited.

    When in doubt, take it to a vet!

    Wow thats pretty crazy; I was thinking muscle spasms too... I've never seen any of my snakes have any but I would imagine it would look something like that.

    Re: alien chestburster? but seriously that can't be her heart beating ...right?

    Well, I've been handling and playing with snakes for well over 25 years and I can honestly say that I've never seen anything like that. I'm sure It's not the heart. I can't tell where on the body this is, but the heart is not located very far back from the head. Maybe 1/5 of the body length or less from the neck.

    I have seen parasitic worms moving under the flesh of mammals before. But not that hard of a push.

    Well thats the first time I have ever seen that and that is crazy to say the least. Does it do that all the time are only after you have been messing with the animal?

    It is weird - it almost looks like a live chick was fed to it prior to that and is still alive and poking with its beak.
