OK, I'm dumbfounded ! I attempted to feed a pinky to my 1.5 month corn snake and several things happened. I've only had it for a week and it hasn't been very social.
First I thawed the pinky and when I took it out of the bag, it stunk ! Wow, it's my first feeding so I don't know if that's normal?
Then the little guy would go up to the head and flick it's tongue a couple of times, then pull away quickly, slithering around the tub quickly. On some occasions she would look as if she was yawning?
To top things off, I left her alone but still no eating. When I go to put her in her bin, she tries to take off from me and poops a yellowish thing on my shirt. This is not the first time she does it either. Well, needless to say, I'll try feeding her again in a few days.
So is her behavior normal described above? Do frozen pinky's smell? What does the yawning mean? Is the pooping stuff what we call musking??
