    Young Hondurans

    Do I need to be concerned with them ingesting aspen bedding while feeding. I hate to take them out of their tubs to feed for fear that will stress them out.

    They are both about 8 weeks old.

    What do you all suggest I do.

    Thanks

    They should be fine although if you are worried I know someone on here who puts down a small peice of paper and when the snake strikes and swollows the mouse there is no risk of impaction
    Constantly trying to improve, always open to learning. For the good of the animals, education is priority.

    I thought of that option but more than likely they will be in their hide when I offer the pinky on tongs in the entrance of the hide - which means they will be eating on aspen bedding.
