I have a pair of these Zoo Med tongs
10" Feeding Tongs
commonly found in pet stores. Hate them. I am constantly dropping mice because of how the end of the tongs are shaped. The ends meet at a very small area of the inside surface of the tongs and if you are enticing a shy snake and are holding a mouse for any length of time eventually you slightly let up on pressure and the mouse drops and spooks the snake.
Looking to replace with something about the same size but where the ends have more surface area touching when you close down the tongs so you don't have to squeeze them as hard to keep a grip on the mouse as you waggle it around.
Would love any suggestions. Thinking something along the lines of these:
Exo Terra : Tongs / Feeding Tool
but not sure I want rubber ends, or if these are really much better.
