An idea of my moms

She thinks it would be a good idea to put link in a small 10 gallon sterilite with a hole in the top covered by a large sheet with a hile of course. Then she wants me to dangle the mouse in from the hole so Link dosn't see the tongs of my hand dangling the mouse and doin' the mousy dance. Good idea? Bad idea?

Interesting idea.....I may try this with my rosy boa. Some snakes don't do well with tongs.

sounds like a good idea to me.

Who knew my mom would come up with a good idea for herps.

i think i might try this because yesterday i was feeding my girl and she struck out at the tongs but luckily she missed!

I dont use tongs, i just drop it in there and give it a nudge for the rats. With the corn i just leave it in there and she slowly comes out and swallows it, i dont have to touch it at all.

alfy just struck at the tongs too. but only because i accidently dropped the rat in front of him when doin the rat dance but when i went to pick it back up he struck at the tongs. so i decided to leave it and shut the lid but i was worried he wouldn't go for it. but he did :mrgreen: and pretty quickly. i may give up the rat dance now and just drop it in and close the lid.

Gosh, your lucky your bp isn't off feed. Link just looks at the food and then leaves. Thats why I'm tyin' this.
