Corn constricted prey for the first time in her life

Hi all.

My corn is about 11 months old and eats only FT food. She has never constricted her prey, normally just just sniffs it .. finds the head and eats it.

Last night she caught it and did a whole constricting process. Wrapped around it at least 2 or 3 times and "killed" it for a long time.

She hadn't eaten for 8 days ... you think she was just keen?

Of course, I'm not concerned at all ... just thought it was kind of neat.

Any ideas?
Joel
