feeding differences

i fed my BP for the first time today and it's kind of funny to see the extreme difference between ambush hunters (my dum) and the ball python. the dum will just sit totally still until the rat comes face to face then he will PRECISION strike it in the face and eat. i put the mouse in with the BP and he immediately perked up and assumed the S position. he watched the mouse for a half a minute or so, then struck and missed, then he cornered the mouse and struck again but as he struck the mouse jumped and bounced off him and jumped out of the shoebox they were in. i got the mouse and put him back in, and the BP realized that the precision strikes weren't working, so he kind of un S'd and stretched his body in a straight line across the box kind of like a baricade for the mouse, then the mouse finally ran up to his face in a panic and he got it lol. it was kind of sloppy
