Ok, i went to get a mouse for my baby bci last week, it ate no problem, but now it is acting wierd with this mouse..

its hard to explain, but it first tried to swallow it backwords, now it has a grip on the middle of the mouses body, its like its struggling with it?

In the begining Casey did that a few times. It would take her 10 minutes of wrapping herself around her meal and going from its head to its tail before she would decide which end she wanted to eat from. I thought the same thing. Poor thing is wondering what in the world to do with this thing. You could tell she wanted to eat it but just how in the world do I do it? Now another time she was being finicky and she would leave it alone until I picked it up again and she struck it perfectly on the head part and it was already in the mouth ready for swallowing.
