Wow, interesting story. Well I hope that your experiences with the bathtub has convinced you that its fine to feed your BP in its enclosure. As stressful as that whole experience was for you it was probably equally stressful on Zeek. Good luck with feeding frozen, some BP's will take frozen and some won't. Mine will not. In fact I am convinced mine has multiple personalities. She gobbles down 3 mice two weeks in a row and then acts like I am offering her a salad for the last two weeks. As for feeling bad about feeding rodents to snakes. Think about how often mice and rats reproduce. Think about how many pups they can have in a year. Now we know that the global population of mice and rats is more or less stable as there is no shortage of rodents and we are not literally being overrun. What do you think happens to all those baby rats and mice. They die, thats what. Feeding your snake is no more wrong than having turkey on thanksgiving.
