Hand fed reptiles...

[marvelfreak]

I don't hand feed, but i have reach in many of time while there was food in their cages. I actually pull a rat off of a Burm one time. I put the rat in a it jump right on the burm and bit it. He started moving all over trying to get it off. I grab the rat and it bit me, so i threw it on the floor and stomp on it. My freind told me" i was crazy for reaching in and lucky the burm didn't bite me". I didn't care as long as my snake was safe. My big jungle as a scar on her nose from wrapping (a FT rat) and the mouth pop open. As she squeeze the teeth dug into her nose. I reach in and pulled the rats head back as she finshed squeezing it. I will assaist if needed. I have reach in and move hides and water bowls out of the way to make it easier for my snake to get to a meal that keeps running away.
