Wow, you guys are great. I posted this, popped over to MartialTalk for just a little while and come back to two pages of great information. I prefer the idea of feeding inside the normal enclosure with the precautions that you've all listed. As I understand it BPs can be picky eaters at times and susceptible to stress at all times so moving to another box to feed just seems like unnecessary stress. We're spending the week getting the enclosure set up and will be bringing him home this weekend. He's just finished a shed and the folks that have him want to feed him one last time before the move so that he'll have a full belly while getting used to his new home.

So, to summarize:
1:no need to move for feeding
2:use tongs to offer food
3:use gloves or wash hands well when/after handling food source
4:the more regular the feeding schedule the better
5:handle your snake often
