Talking W. Hognose Finally Ate

Well we got a live pink the other day and did a little push back and forth, but he took the pink without to much convincing.

He struck at it a few times with mouth closed. It looked like he was knawing on it. Is this because he is rear fanged? He also took it from the middle and worked his way down to the "Rear" of the prey and took it backwards.


I am sure I asked this question before. But I don't think I got answered to my satisfaction.

I thought I would ask because they are kind of the same thickness all over.

I know my corn can take a pretty large meal. But can a W.Hognose take something that is 1.5-2 (maybe 3) times the biggest "part" of his body?

And Obviously this goes with the last question. But can they stretch their jaws like corns and bp's?

Thanks for any info!

P.S

Thanks for all the feeding tips!
