Yeah, haha. I cut them frozen then defrost them separately (separate bag). The tails are assist fed (inserted into the mouth and then they eat it) to babies that are normally lizard eaters. I assist feed a few snakes this way to get a little size on them without using lizards, then I assist feed pinky mice until they start taking them on their own... the haitians are right on the edge now. They've each taken a few unscented pinkies through assist feeding.
The bodies are used to feed my other 40+ snakes - so no waste or shortage of tails.
