Do you need help learning the proper way to feed your snake? That method is just about guaranteed to end up with a non-eating snake.

[waltah!]

If you were coming here to learn how to feed that snake (if it's yours) then you came to the right place. If a snake hits his head multiple times like that it could cause discomfort for the snake and cause him to not eat. I know that many times while feeding one of mine will miss and smack the side of the tub. After that they tend to just shy away from the food.
If you're going to feed like that you can place the feeder in without the plastic bin so the snake can just grab it. You probably should have put down the video recorder and fixed the issue rather than watching it happen.

lol i know how to feed a snake!!! i meant to have the door wide open but OH WELL! this snake is a great eater just like my other snakes

Okay, so imagine that you're really hungry and someone puts a plate of food in front of you. You run forward to eat it, but you smack into something hard. And again. Don't you think that would hurt? Duh.

WELL DID U READ THE LAST POST??? U LEARN FROM MISTAKES, U LOSERS CRY EVERYTIME SOMEBODY MAKES A MISTAKE, ITS JUST SOMETHING VERY "DIFFERENT" TO CATCH ON VIDEO, IF I CATCH A MAN COMMITING SUICIDE ON VIDEO, THAT DOESNT MEAN THAT I WANTED IT TO HAPPEN, I JUST SO HAPPENED TO CATCH AN INTERESTING VIDEO

Cool your jets there buster..name calling is no way to win friends and influance people.. We're merely trying to help. Any one that trys to feed their snake with the mouse still in the Kritter carrier at first glance looks like some one that needs gentle direction. Now If you knew better and did it any way thats a different story..

But flying off the handle isn't going to help your case.

That was a horrible comparison. I guess most of us would just immediately fix the problem instead of seeing our snake in pain, that's all.

so you know how to feed a snake properly but set up a senerio to video it hitting its head on purpouse, why? Just to have a laugh at the expence of your snake?
