My 05 candy cane stands up strait after he puts the pinkie in his mouth.I know it is probably normal,but looks kinda funny.He has almost half his boby lenth standing up digesting the food for the first few minutes.

My daughter's Okeetee started doing that. Maybe they're using gravity for an assist(?)
Looks like a cobra!

Ya, my corns do that occasionally. I beleive they are using gravity and the fact that being straight makes it easier, then they can twist their "neck" to make it move down. Thats just my opinion, though

Both of my black rats do that. I always assumed they just let the meal "slide" down their throaght.
