Beautiful snake. I'm just getting into colubrids and it seems like the rat snakes don't show much interest in coiling their prey. Even with you pulling on the tail it didn't trigger a response to coil. Is this a common thing with colubrids? If this was live prey would it have done the same thing and tried to swallow it live?
@leftocastpunx83 Hi i just got one of these and i have found if you feed them twice a day even the grumpiest snake can feel secure the one i have has never been handled and he is @3yrs old but he has only just started to let me pick him out after 6wks of feeding whickmn@hotmail .com
dude you idiot you should let the mouse drop when it bites it like that then when it start to crawl around it and squeese make the dead mouse move alittle again dont hold it like that...
You should wiggle the mouse instead of pulling the mouse, that snake could easily break some teeth if you pull like that. I wiggle my beauty's food to try to get a better feeding response.
The teeth aren't that weak. The slight wiggling induces a better feeding response with some snakes. They'll start eating it quicker. Usually I'll just drop a F/T mouse/rat with the snake and leave it alone for a few minutes when I'm feeding.
will be getting one of em' in about a week :D

...why wiggle it after it bites? Can't you just rip out teeth or something bad? He's already got it, he'll eat it.

Try wiggling the pre after it latches on to induce it to constrict. Nice snake, I have a pair.
