OMG...my little Lesser BP used to do that when I switched her to larger dead mice.
She’d take her snout and just pound it like a hammer.
She’s living with a breeder now.
Hope he’s having all the “fun” of getting her to eat on feeding night.
My snakes, I just thaw out their chow to room temp and toss it in their houses.
They eat when they’re good and ready.
Lazy, spoiled things.
Three of the Boas “play” with their food for 20+ minutes.
They carry it around, put it down and nuzzle it, throw it in their water bowl and “drown it”, lay on top of it and take a nap..and finally swallow it.
Weirdos.
I love ‘em.
:)
First time we watched Buddy do that, we were horrified.
It was almost as if the snake was like “I’ll show you ALL!”
He did try to put “the squeeze” on me, but it didn’t quite work.
<< My snakes,…. >>
Salamander, i love ya dude, but you’re certifiable. The only snakes i don’t shoot on sight are king snakes and grass snakes. Keep yours away from me!
