The other week I posted that Medusa was becoming slightly agressive and not wanting to be handled. Since then a lot has changed 
She's becoming more and more 'tame' and used to me now, she's still a little scared when you first touch her but once she's smelt it's 'me' she totally relaxes and will happily be picked up and handled for a period of time, I've slowly been increasing the amount of time I have her out of the faun' and that seems to have made some changes in her behaviour! Moving stuff in the tank and cleaning and changing water have seemed to help change her ways too!
Had another good feed from her on Sunday! Put it in and she ignored it but once I made it bob about a bit she was more and more interested in it and picked it up! Sideways on though, she moved to the other side of the tank, put it down and ate it bottom end first?! I'm sure that's not right but she didn't regurgitate or anything. She wolfed it down really quick, lol!
So glad I finally seem to have a happy corn 
Thanks for the advice! x

Regurgitation doesn't depend on if she eats it bottom first or head first. Both r perfectly normal |

I'm glad she's calming down for you now. Sounds like you've got a nice contented little snake there.
My snakes have both taken their food bum first on occasion,its nowt to worry about. Looks really odd seeing a face peeping out of your snakes mouth though doesn't it lol! |
