Re: Feeding

Didn't bother to read the replies
Here is what I do
Grab snake by the head.
Swing it above my head 3-4 times til dizzy
Place into container
Drop a baby monkey in while snake is still dizzy
Wait til the monkey's but and feet disappeare
Put lid on
Open up ten minuets later
Allow snake to hold my hand with mouth
Put arm in the cage til he let goes and slithers off

Hope that helps.

LOL

Feed in a seperate container if you don't believe all of us who are saying otherwise. I was stubborn too when I had my first ball python and always fed in a seperate container (link below), but now I feed all of my snakes in their enclosures and no, I do not get bit every time I reach in their tubs/tank. Do what you feel is right, but in the end, you're gonna be agreeing with us

(As you can see, she ate like a champ even when I brought her into a seperate container, but I can guarantee you that if I put my other three hatchlings in seperate containers, probably two of the three wouldnt eat, because I know they are already picky)



Also, Disclaimer! Dont ever feed with paper towel underneath the prey (I was stupid back then), because if your snakes teeth get caught onto it, they end up swallowing the whole piece of paper towel and it is fatal.
