| she's a beautiful snake but i'm sorry i think it was cruel to get hold of the mouse once she already had it in her mouth, i certainly wouldn't be happy if someone tried to start and take my dinner out of my mouth or hand - which in effect thats what it was, she's got a good stike response don't think she needs any teasing, you also need to be careful pulling the mouse back once its in her mouth incase you damage her little teeth. |

| moving a pray around slightly is ok while snake has it is also away to encourage constriction behaviour as it mimics the struggling from a live pray. it just has to be done with care an caution. |

| Cute little snake, good feeder. As above though think proportionate when feeding as to how much wiggle you can give, would a pinkie mouse if it was alive be able to drag the snake by its mouth across a tub. I find holding the mouse by the tail with the tongs give the snake much less chance of hitting the tongs when they strike and also once they have a hold of the mouse a TINY wiggle as if its struggling can trigger a constriction and remember their teeth face backwards so when you pull the teeth dig in deeper and then either the mouse skin has to give way or their teeth will. |
