My 3 year old BP, who has been eating nothing but FK for probably the last 2 and a half years still strikes, constricts and holds the constriction before eating.

My corn snake, as a comparison, just starts eat the FK right away, no constriction at all.

Just curious as to how many of you have BP's that don't constrict dead prey and how many do constrict. Any other thoughts on the subject are welcome...
