Have your snakes multi-tasked?

Last night, my rat snake was eating....well, a rat. As he was pushing it on down the gullet, he started making laps around the enclosure shedding his skin at the same time. Never seen that before. Have any of you seen yours do this? It was kind of strange.

Lol, yes I have. Strangest thing I've ever watched. The rat tail was still hanging out of his mouth when he started.

I've had a few of my Sand Boas do that, the one's I have trouble figuring out whether they're in shed or not, like my female snow....I will feed her, and the next thing I know, she'll start to shed....

Good. Not the only one. I didn't want to try and explain further if no one else has been there. Didn't have time to do the video. That would've been pretty cool.
