I always feed my big boy in a seperate enclosure(he is my first snake), but since I got a rack with 10 babies in it, I think I am going to start feeding in their tubs and in my big guys tank, I feel like it is a lot less stressful and a lot more convenient. Also, many people are right, ball pythons are pretty harmless, I'm pretty sure they will all be fine with me picking them up and knowing when its feeding time.
