Feeding tank?

I currently have my 1ft BP in a 39 gal. aquarium and I move her to a ten gal. for feeding. I've read that there's no benefit to doing this, but I got her off of Craigslist and her previous owners moved her to feed her, so I continue doing it just because it's what she's used to.

To get her back into her cage I simply pick up the ten gal. and gently place it inside of her usual tank until she moves out of it and into her hide or wherever she wants to go on her own.

The snake I adopted was fed for at least the two years before I got him in the bath tub. I fed him there the first time. After posting my story about that event and having just about everyone say it wasn't necessary to feed outside the regular home, I switched to that. With the four that I have now, I haven't experienced any ill effects of feeding in the primary home. There is a much different reaction to my hand entering their home and me presenting a food item.

The now 1300 gram male (Not proven) I adopted is in the 20 gallon tank I adopted him in. The three small females I bought are in 12 quart tubs. The male in the tank has eaten some aspen and hasn't had any problems. The three females have paper towels as substrate and only get any particles that may be on the frozen rat bodies, no ill effects so far.

Some snakes get real nrevous when handled and wont eat when handled. Some get real crazy at feeding time and is very possible you will get bit if you handle at feeding time, so thats why many dont move when feeding.

But if it works for you great. If they start refusing and get all nervous then I would suggest leaving them in the tank. Naturally they are ambush predators so security is important and moving them may make them feel more vulnerable. It depends on the individual snake. I have some that I cant even look at when I feed because the get too scared to eat and others that come flying out of their tubs snapping as soon as they smell rodents in the room.
