Spot has been getting closer to doing a proper constriction over the past few feeds. I dangle in the mouse today and...
I think that counts as a constriction in my book, held it for a good few minutes tightening his coils before he started to swallow it, and only let go completely once he was half way down. I grabbed for the camera took these snaps and then switched to video mode but youtube takes forever so maybe one day I'll put the video link up.
Couldn't be happier right now, best almost Xmas present. |

Missed the beginning but its clear enough that the constriction was a full and tight one as he uncoils. |

| Spot has been trying for a few weeks now but kept missing and ended up flapping around in the tub but this one was to excuse the pun, spot on. I'll have the camera running next week so no doubt he won't do it. Silly how excited you get but I don't care, it was brilliant. |
