I myself feed the majority of my snakes in a tote, others I feed in their enclosure. This varies with MY routine. Sometimes I have a whole day to dedicate to their feeding and general maintenence of their enclosures, other times I have an hour or so.
It is my belief that feeding in a tote promotes the handling of the snake, even if its for a minute or so and there is no chance of substrate being ingested. being that I clean their enclosures and disinfect when they are eating this works for me. But this is not the case every time, I have one snake that is aggresive and I would rather not take her out unless I have to, so she is cage fed. I also have 40 snakes and counting...regardless good luck

Awesome . okay I think I may do it in the tote. When you transfer back to the enclosure when is best? When they are done eating, mid swallow? That's mainly what concerns me.
