    Lori, you lost. Didn't musk, didn't bite, didn't flatten her head.

    And she just made a gigantic poo. Pushed half a pinky through in about 24 hours.

    Re: T. s. tetrataenia baby

    Just a random question, but why exactly do they flatten their heads? To look bigger, to look like vipers or is it just because of the mechanics of the bite?

    Viewed from the front, they look a bit bigger, but viewed from above, the head shape is the same triangular shape as a viper's with the big venom glands.

    Yes, it's all part of the whole viper-mimic job. Occasionally, when very angry, they will raise the head off the floor and hold it chin-down in typical rattler defense pose.

    That would make a most excellent photo, if you could catch her at it. Can you go and annoy her a bit more?
