Re: Feeding while shedding

I personally dont like to feed during shed, they dont feed in the wild when they shed. So i dont bother to try feeding them only to make my life easier.

Can you show me where you found this as this is the first I have heard of it.

The only snakes I have heard of dismembering their prey was Kim's Shelby.

Any snake that is willing to take food in captivity when it is in shed, will also take food in the wild if the prey is found.
