Admitadly i hadn't fed my animals for 2 weeks and they were more hunry than usual but 2 of my adult junles were ull on wavin their tails eratically and seemed real excited.

Interestin to hear your womas did it.My bhp's don't but they have their own spun out feedin habbits and stories too.

I miht try not feedin or a couple of weeks and have a video cam ready to catch it on film so it can be viewed by others.

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?

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