so, this totally just happened! I was turning off the lights in my QT tank when I noticed my serpents out front in my DT. I stopped to look at him for a minute, as I find him very entertaining. I noticed there was a snail caught up in one of his arms. I figured no big deal, he'll find his way out. NOT! The serpent proceeded to cover him with his body and then I could see what looked like a huge lump forming on his body. I grabbed something to move him, but it was too late! The snail was GONE! And not a tiny snail, either! Has anyone ever known serpents to eat snails? What will he do with the shell he ingested? One wasn't enough for the little devil; I had to stop him from eating 2 more snails! I couldn't get pics as it was happening, but I snapped a couple after. One is a snail about the same size as the one he ate and one is of him, retreating back into the rocks!
