Hello all. First time posting. It's been a while since I've owned a snake. I actually got a regular BP back in the 80's and had him for 26 yrs. Recently, I've been missing him so my wife and I went to the pet store to look at them and get a feel for them again. Well, 2 snakes later ... lol. So, we're loving our new snakes. She has a F - Pinstripe BP and I have a M - Mojave BP, both about 3/4 months old (pic in Avatar). I know that there's much debate on whether to feed them in their primary tank or a secondary tank so that they don't get used to feeding in their primary. (Although, I never had a problem feeding my previous BP in his primary tank-although he was about 3yrs old when I got him). After doing research, I understand that it's good to feed them in a secondary tank (terrarium), and then leave them alone for about 48hrs. However, since their smaller feed tanks (which are large plastic containers) don't have heat in them, I'd rather not leave them in it for 48hrs. Is it ok to feed them in the secondary "feeding" tanks and then after eating, lower the entire container into their main tank to let them crawl out and enjoy their true & heated home (since the UTH helps with their digestion)? Thanks all for reading this and for your help! Enjoy your babies !!
