    feeding question

    getting ready to feed by BP Brutis for the first time. I was told to feed him in a seperate enclosure. How log after he swallows can I pick him up to put him back in his home? I know he needs the heat to digest and want to get him to his pad asap....

    You don't need to feed in a separate enclosure. If you do decide to you can pick him up after he has the food all the way down in his stomach.

    doesnt matter if you put him in another enclosure or not. i did this with mine when i first got them but now i just throw the mice or rats in with them and let them enjoy. if you do chose to take them out give the 10-15 after they get it down.
