    I can only echo what our other members have posted. I feed after work, but before bed. Usually between 7pm-9pm.

    All of my guys eat live and pick up rats on Wednesdays at 6:30pm. I usually chat with the rat breeder until a little before 7pm and then I'm home by 7:30pm. They snakes get fed then xD

    My corn snakes, however, eat on Sundays...whenever I get the mice thawed out. Sometimes it's in the early afternoon, sometimes it can be as late as 11pm. Usually it's around 8 once I've had my own dinner.

    I feed at night between 11pm and 4am. I work nights so it works out.

    Between school and clinicals, I rarely have a free night so I usually feed on a schedule so I can't complain how tired I am xD

    I don't think it matters if you feed on your day off or when you work. As long as the animals are getting fed who cares?

    I usually feed on the weekends, Fri-Sun, it varies depending on what I'm doing/ how I feel/ when we clean the rats, ETC. It's usually later at night too, I somewhat aim for after dark but that's also kinna just what happens. I have fed during the day though. Not sure if I noticed a real difference.

    I feed when I have time - sometimes in the morning, sometimes at night. If they're hungry, they eat, if they're not, they don't - they rarely skip more than a month of feeding in a row so I've never stressed much over tricks to get em to eat.

    I feed as soon as I get back with the rat, and she usually eats. It depends what I'm doing..
