One of my snakes insists that he 'pursue' the mouse for at least 6 inches before he's sure it's 'looking away' so that he can strike, if you can call what he does a real strike (my guess is that he's never had to kill anything in his life).

My other snake has to be the sneaky type, if it surprises her she freaks out and pushes it away, the best strategy seems to be wiggling it on the opposite side of the tank, but only when she's being picky.

I love how something so not warm and fuzzy has such a huge personality (though I may be anthropomorphizing a bit..lol).
