I have what may sound like a stupid question but I wanted some insight on how to feed f/t to my juvenile BP. I've thawed and warmed the mouse up but am not 100% sure how to introduce it into the cage. I bought a pair of tongs so am I supposed to dangle the mouse in front of the snake or should I put the mouse down somewhere inside of the cage and let the snake find it? If I put it down in the cage, should it be placed on top of the substrate (aspen) or put somewhere else where the substrate won't get on it and risk the chance of the substrate being ingested by the snake?

Thanks in advance for you help.
