Meet Lilou
And here's our beautiful girl, Lilou, the Australian Woma python. She has a ferocious appetite.

Oops. Sorry. I'm sure that one of our moderators will move it to the right place.

Beware when you feed your woma.
Ferocious appetite, incredible strike. Separate feeding tank is advised. If you drop a mouse/rat in the enclosure, I doubt that you'll be able to get the snake out next time without risking a serious bite.
The woma is the type of snake that must be taught to differentiate between the usual habitat and the feeding grounds.
Otherwise, a wonderful snake that can be easily tamed.

I have several carpet pythons so I'm well aware of feeding responses.

Hook training. No need for a separate enclosure...

^^ This. ^^
I wouldn't want to have to transfer a woma from a feeding bin back to their home when they're still in feeding mode. Sure, feeding in the enclosure might get them all excited every time you open the door, but it doesn't take long to teach them that a boop on the nose means no food is coming. Even if they try to strike before you get a chance to tap them, you'll have the hook(or whatever implement you prefer) between you and the snake anyway.

My husband and I don't use a hook, or anything other than our hands, to get our snakes out. If they are awake, they will crawl on our hand as soon as they see it, as they are always happy to be taken out. We never got bit in the process of taking our snakes out, or holding them, so we never thought about using a hook. My husband was bit when he was trying to stop one of our snakes from sneaking into the window frame. He knew he shouldn't have, but did it anyway. Also, got nipped when taking Bozo, the banana ball python, out of the bag he'd been shipped in. Poor little guy was terrified from the trip. Never bit since, not once. And now Lilou, the woma, bit him and wrapped around his hand in a choking grip when she saw him drop the mice in the enclosure. She didn't mean to bite him, it was a feeding response, and she missed her target. So, all bites were triggered by something specific, no bite while just handling the snakes, or removing them from enclosures. Not even when they are shedding.
