How to feed "Live" prey

[pavlovk1025]

I've seen a rat run into a hide with a hungry snake inside, end of story LOL.

When they run into empty hides, they usually come out and keep exploring.

Trust me if you snake wants to eat it. She will stalk it down.

+1 on that. When they want it, they get it. With ferocity. Ive had one of my bigger snakes strike so hard and fast, and then constrict so hard that the ASF bled from mouth and butt....it was brutal.

This will be very interesting since I have never fed live before and I tend to be a big softey for all animals - but I will do what I have to do for my BP's well being.

Circle of life. I used to feel bad, but it has to go down. Especially when I fed my first snake ( a corn ) a pinky. That was tough. Now it's just whatever. Thanks for being food. *chomp*
