    Another feeding question(s)

    For those that feed there snakes in separate tubs or enclosures:

    Do you just put the snake in the enclosure and try to feed right away? Or do you put them in the tub and wait a few mins or a while before you attempt to feed?

    When I fed outside the enclosure, I would

    1. Remove snake from tank.
    2. Place in feed tank/tub.
    3. Pre-scent for 30-45 minutes (if I need to)
    4. Feed
    5. Remove snake.

    Now that I feed in the enclosures.

    1. Pre-Scent
    2. Feed

    While it doesn't really matter, IMO. Feeding inside the enclosure is way easier for everyone! (You and your pets)

    i feed in a tub.all i do is pull the tub out and my bp is out of his hide within a few minutes i take him out stun and dangle the rat at his face.usually strikes within 5 minutes.then i just wait till hes dont and put him back.i belive that he associates the tub with food. never prescented before a feeding and hes allways ready when he sees the tub.
