Video would be great. My womas used to lure their tails and flop them side to side when they smelt mice or rats, one of them also used to bob his head up and down at the same time. have to be the most entertaining pythons to watch feed.

Yeah that's how they were wavin their tails rom side to side.
My blackheads are bloody ffunny to watch feedin.One burst throuh the newspaper ,ripped it open with his head and pulled the rat under, and if he has one half in his mouth and i move he slams the lass doors with it still in his mouth flickin his body around like a side winder.The other one takes her rats backwards each time and both pull the feed back into their hides most times.Very entertainin.
Would be interestin to hear if anyone else has the tail lure happen with junles thouh?

They sure are iluvs, i dropped a live fuzzy rat in with my NT blackhead when i first acquired her and she cauht it in mid air scoffed it down in no less than 3 seconds and you could hear the rat still squealin half way down it's throat.I thouht it was pretty bizarre,but awesome at the same time

Was it doing it to a prey item? because most pythons will do it if agitated.
