Hmm.. yeah feeding would be another issue.. Can they pass it if some of it gets taken down with the meal? I certainly don't want to get in the habit of removing my boa for feeding, and I don't think the bp would go for it at all. The only thing that got me thinking about switching was that my new corn likes to burrow.. Maybe I'll give it a whirl with her first and see how much of a pita it is.
