When i fed my corn earlier on today ... she constricted it for a while, let go of the head and couldnt find it again .. then she started to bite herself 3 times in around about the same place before finding the head again ..
shes let go of the head many a time before but never bitten herself and im a tad concerned

She will be fine, dont worry about it. They can get a bit over excited at feeding time and bite anything that moves.

and if she's constricted the mouse then she'll smell mousey all over herself.
they don't usually do much damage to themselves, and they don't usually do it again in a hurry, lol

Mine bit his own tail. He constricted then missed and got himself.

Mine shot of himself very quickly and looked bewildered.
