Prey is set down, snake strikes but doesn't constrict.
I miss the option ignore the food and go for your fingers.
Otherwise pretty much all of the above at one point or the other.
Haha yeah well i DID put in an 'other' option. Also meant to have it so you can check more than one box, as alot of poeple will have more than one snake who does somethging different from the others... sorry!
I selected 'Snake just eats it. No striking or constricting'. For my Corn, I just set the fuzzy down in his tank, and within 10 minutes it's gone.
For my Royal Python, I dangle the rat with a pair of tongs, she'll come up to it, set herself, then strike and constrict. She even decided to drag it into the water last night to eat it. It was quite funny, she always stands up to finish it, she looked like the Loch Ness Monster.
It's funny, my snakes have done all that your state in your poll. Their "eatting habits" has change since they were hatchling. Starting with no constricting to striking with constricting. I think this might be the case with some snakes.
