feed in tank vs out of tank... what works for you?

I find it depends on the snake! I have 3 that will eat anywhere anytime! I feed live so we make a feeding night out of it and put them in a black storage container type thing and they fead just fine. One of my snake though is really picky about where she eats. Once in a while she will eat out of her rack and others she wont even look at the meal untill i put it in her tub and then instantly hits either way i havent seen anything different with aggression.

Some say out so they are less likely to bite you when reaching for them in there tank and others say it dosnt matter.

What do you do and what have your results been?

Well i feed in a seperate tub never had a problem... I don't do it because they might confuse me for food ( thats BS) i do it because if they accidentally ingest to much bedding they can get mouth rot... if i were using paper towels as bedding then i would feed on enclosure... and people saying you might get them stress its a lie... if you start feeding them since babies on seperate tub they'll eventually get use to it... but if you start feeding them on seperate tub when they're juvies or adults then they will get stress because they were never use to it...
