Hi guys. So I've really gotten into a nice routine with my snakes, and everything is working out pretty well. There's just one thing that's been bugging me.
When I feed the snakes, I always end up jumping/jerking a little bit when they strike their food. Like...it doesn't scare me, it's just the extremely fast movement makes my body react. One time I've even dropped the rat before they've bitten it and it drops on them and they get scared. (Only happened once thankfully, but then he wouldn't eat it -_-)
Is there any way to stop my body from doing this? Or will it just stop on it's own once I've been doing it for a long time?
Thank you for any help. As a bonus, here's a pic of Malachi of his first day outside!
