wait until they do that and it pops open on you and they decide they don't want it and then bury it and you think they ate until that lovely aroma starts to spread...

LOL - Shell, I've had mine do that.  Mine will shove it in the back of their hide, right over the heat pad.  Nothing like the smell of decomp when you wake up in the morning.   EWWWW

Well, on the topic of annoying feeding styles...

Reminds me when I first got my adult Indigo, I kept him on aspen, and during our first feeding together he dragged and pushed the damp thawed rat through the substrate until it looked like an ice cream cone dipped in coconut shavings!  He'd grabbed it sideways, as they do, so it looked like he had a big blob of gut-packing wood chips to eat instead of a rodent.

Now it is no easy task to remove prey from the mouth of a 6 foot Indigo; our first bonding experience was a wrestling match over a delicious aspen crusted dead rat.  Thankfully I won that round.  Now he lives on newspaper.

I hate it when baby blood pythons won't even look at FT but will immediately chow down on a live mouse!  But, again, as long as they eat!

I hate my damn mouser IJ's, Try to trick them into rats and theyll rip it off the tongs, kill the dead FT some more ;) and then just drop it....some of them are a pain in the ass time to time!!

LOL thats a great story about the indigo!!
