Sorry about the slight rubbishness; the fella nicked the camera batteries for his XBox console so I had to take them on the phone. She properly struck and constricted her fuzzy tonight (and may have given me rather a fright when she did) - it's the first time she's done both and I'm such a proud mummy

swish!

Mine strikes but to no avail, and when he does get it, (it still makes me jump and nearly let go of the mouse!) he throws 2 very loose coils over it, flips over slightly and then it just.. fails.. with a loud tail rattle!!

Mine will get there I'm sure but enough with the thread hi-jack; she likes her food!!

They are lazy and think the food will die of fright. Sometimes that Strike and consriction is so fast it does make us jump.

Aw that's amazing, well done Bella!! :) I don't think Sneaky will strike or constrict anytime soon, he's still sooooooo shy when it comes to eating.

Well done for catching it, and looks like a pinkie too, Gorgeous just looks at it as if to say 'what am I supposed to do with that?!' As I've said before, I think he's a bit 'challenged', LOL

I was amazed she did it actually; apart from when she bit me a couple of weeks ago she's showed no interest in striking whatsoever. I've wiggled pinkies at her before but she's had no inclination at all; she just waits until I put it down and then noses it around a bit before having a lightbulb moment and realising it's food. I held this fuzzy (they are fuzzies; small ones though because she's only just moved up to them) by its back leg and wiggled it and she just went BAM!!! out of nowhere. Eeeek!

Wish I could manage to get photo of Kellog as he strikes, but as I feed him in viv he always seems to choose a position that is not exactly right for a photo shoot! Especially when he strikes fast! Well done. xxx
