    You don't need to remove it from the tank to feed it. Snakes do not become aggressive or more prone to biting if they are fed in their enclosures.

    You don't need to worry about putting down paper towels. Use your paper towels for wiping something up in the kitchen.

    You don't need to worry about it ingesting wood substrate. With the exception of really, really, really, really, really, really, really small neonates, there is no risk - and even with the most wee of neonates, that risk is infinitesimal. Don't believe me? Ask a qualified reptile vet how many substrate impactions they treat in their careers.

    If you feed live, supervise the feeding. If you feed F/T feel free to walk away.

    Too many phantom worries and internet forum bugaboos here. Worry less, enjoy your snake more.
