At first, he really looked interested in the mouse I offered him, I backed off and didn't move but stayed close enough that if the mouse tried to attack him I could get to it. He didn't hiss at the mouse at all, he only struck once but it was like a defensive strike, never even tried to curl around it. That's when the mouse got all crazy and started literally jumping around the cage, I had to reach in and get it out of there cause I don't want anything happening to the boa. I reached in and got the mouse without anything from the snake, it's when I put the top back on his cage that he started to hiss and strike at the glass. I don't know, I'm probably doing something wrong.
