Your snake will not get impacted from feeding inside the enclosure, as long as you have proper heat and humidity (as you should anyway) there is no need to feed outside the enclosure... if your afraid of getting bit you shouldn't own the snake.. just my opinion..
i used to feed outside the enclosures not too very long ago.. someone brought it to my attention that i will be lugging an 8ft snake to somewhere (god knows where) to feed if i wanna keep doing that,i was also afraid of the whole "impaction" thing so i decided i'd give it a try and my snake eats faster, better, and is more calm, and i dont have to worry about being bit trying to transfer her back because she didnt want me to mess with her, you are only stressing out your snake. your reasons are all your own and its your choice not your snakes, if it were your snakes they would choose the better option. feed inside enclosure.
