I agree great song. Amy lee is gorgeous. lol. I don't have any huge snakes, but I do the same with the few that will only eat live. I will get a pen or something and hold the mouse's mouth away from the snake. Although I was unsuccessful once :( But it was ok. :)

Well, I'm 5', so I'm sure I can fit in there. Have you seen the cages denial keeps his snakes in? I think he keeps them in vision 6x3's(same thing my burm is in). I always heard the rule was 1 square foot of floor space for every foot of snake, but lately I have been hearing 1.5 sq ft of space for every 1 foot of snake. Even so, lets do the math, 8 * 1.5 = 12. 6 * 2 = 12. Many people keep adult burms and retics in AP 6x3's or vision 6x3's.

I do see an issue with having that screen door though.

I'm not lecturing anybody, just stating my preferences. I like big enclosures, and that's my choice. I like to give my snakes options that aren't available in a "one side hot - one side cool" enclosure. They appreciate it, I'm sure.
