I would advise against cutting the belly. When your snake constricts, you're going to have guts everywhere.

I, too, would advise against cutting the belly. That's going to make a gigantic mess for you to clean up. And you really don't need a power drill to get through the skull, they're surprisingly soft. Really even a pencil would work to just poke a hole.

Their skulls are literally so thin. I barely put any pressure on it with a dinky little penknife and it slid right through. A power drill is what you'd need for a human skull lol. The rats skulls are like paper thin when theyre born and they arent much thicker as adults. You definetly do NOT wanna cut open the stomach. Your snake will pound it and when it constricts the guts will go everywhere lol
