There is a YouTube video of a kid (looks 9yo) feeding a blood by hand.
(Can't find it right now)
I remember thinking:
Damn....
It's all fun and games until someone's tiny ligament is severed....
Stupid dad is probably video taping his little kid doing that.

First off I bet the dad knew what could happen and was just snickering.
Secondly I just toss it in and walk away every time. The only dangler I have is my blind girl and I have to bump her with her prey.

No, I feed f/t. I have just conditioned my snakes to eat off the floor. Much more convenient this way. Especially when I have 20-30 snakes to feed.
So just warm 'em up and drop 'em in Korbin? How long before they take the bait? I've tried that before and mine would just ignore the mice. Then I would reheat it and dangle it in front of them and they'd go for it. I also like watching my snakes strike and constrict so I dangle the mice on tongs.

That is the only way my male gtp will eat.
Now my jcp will strike from the tongs but before I had to leave it in his enclosure too. All snakes are different I would have to wait hours for my GTP and only a few minutes for my jcp.
I do the same thing Korbin does, though my carpet pythons will take it out of the air, as I can barely get the cage open and they're learning how to fly themselves all of a sudden. Once I turn the key they are salivating and ready to go....
My Carpets, Bloods and Boas sit at the cage door waiting for me to throw it in. 90% of the time it never hits the cage floor. As for using tong i never do and i never been bit.
I thaw mice in a bag in hot tap water. My king goes for the mouse within a couple seconds if I just drop it near her. No strike; she just wanders up and starts eating.
I have 1 snake that eats f/t (my Coastal Carpet, Argus). I heat her rat up in a ziploc baggie in hot water in a thermos for about 45 minutes. While that's going on, I feed the rest of my snakes, then when I get her rat out, I just dangle it in front of her which she takes promptly, although her previous keeper told me that after heating it up, he lays it on the top branch and lets her get it on her own which I've been told that she flicks it off the ledge and in mid fall, she catches and constricts.
