Re: Doing it wrong-Feeding my Jag
I heard somewhere it's down to stress not sure how true that is. But my boa when I first got her did it twice the first 2 feeds and that was when I was feeding in a separate enclosure, I soon changed to feeding in her own enclosure and she has not eaten one tail first since. But at least he ate it.

Re: Doing it wrong-Feeding my Jag
I had one of my BPs do that and when she was halfway done she decided to stop, reverse and try again haha.

Re: Doing it wrong-Feeding my Jag
Thanks. Yeah he just grabs it and starts swallowing. Doesn't spend 10 minutes checking which end is which like my boas do. Not even 10 seconds

Re: Doing it wrong-Feeding my Jag
i cut the tails off the rats for my female Diamond,as she faffs about for over an hour trying to eat backwards,then gives up and i have to re heat and offer the prey again
so off with the tails and its eaten in a few minutes
imo its amazing how stupid snakes are at times 
your Jags staying nice and clean as it colours up,he's going to be a cracking adult mate
cheers shaun

Thanks. His yellow is keeping nicely. You can see he is getting a hint of green tipping on his back scales but fir the most part he is all yellow. Still a bit of a wild one with the occasional nip.
I am going to breed him next year. I may if all goes well pick up another adult jcp female.
