Constrictors?
Aren't cornsnakes supposed to be constrictors? Do they lose this instinct in captivity? Last night my female mouse had her first litter & was systematically killing them when I woke up this morning. There were only three left alive & I knew they wouldn't last long, so I decided to give my cornsnakes a treat. To my horror, the first cornsnake just started literally eating this pinky alive - tail first. It was still bleating pathetically when its head was disappearing into the snake's mouth. It was rather distressing for me and I'm sure even more so for the pinky. I wouldn't have fed live if I'd known this was going to happen.
