How do you feed your Snake?
I think this might help newbies, (like me!) and veterans find a way to feed a inconsistent feeder. Sometimes they won't eat, or sometimes you want to try something new. (maybe?)
So, I want to know, how do you feed your snake???
I feed mine one or two pinky mice every 5-8 days depending when I last fed them, or one rat pinky if I would rather feed those. (I like feeding rats, cause I heard they are better for them?). With one I always do it the way I do the first one when I have two mice to feed. First mouse/rat I always use a tweezers to dangle it, and have them actively strike at it. The second mouse, if I have one, I hide somewhere, they then have to follow a scent trail or just find it randomly themselves within a few hours, or I take it out. (I warm it up every fifteen minutes or so). I never use the same place twice. Sometimes I put it behind their hide, sometimes in it, under their climbing log, etc. I find this works well, and encourages natural behavior and exercise. (P.S. I feed F/T )
