The constricting would suggest a feeding response; however she acts that way inside and outside her cage. Even after several minutes of handling with a hook she strikes and bites at everything. I have enough pythons (including another woma) to know what a killer feeding response is. This is different.



She gets a medium rat once a week. I have upped it to two rats a week in an attempt to appease her in case it is just a case of her being hungry all the time.
