I'm more of a colubrid guy but womas are actually more colubrid like than most pythons IMO. My adults have that Drymarchon feeding response but they don't seem nearly as intelligent. They've missed a rat on tongs and bitten themselves several times. I can understand that but they're biting and constricting themselves and they still don't seem to get it. Sometimes I wonder how far they'd swallow themselves if I didn't intervene
They are very cool though...someday I'd like to work with black headed pythons as well.
