Feed in cage or separate cage?

[Neal]

Ball pythons, always in their own cage. They're just too insecure. You may get a few individuals who will accept being fed outside their cages, but I seriously doubt it's that common.

I only see my ball pythons coming out looking for food on or the day just before feeding day. A little nudge with a hook or a squirt from a spray bottle, and they settle down. Cage aggression is virtually never an issue, and it's easily defused if it occurs.

Regarding the Anaconda--it's a double-edged sword. Yes, your anaconda may never see its cage as being the place where it is fed. However, you will wind up having to move a keyed-up anaconda that has just been fed and may be looking for seconds, back into its enclosure. Good luck with that, and make sure your insurance is paid up.

LOL, my conda is more calmer then most bps, actually then any other snake i've seen. Go look under the anaconda section and look at possibly thread, with a video of her eating.
