Sorry to derail the thread, but that is hilarious.....: I used to do that with my cat when I was young, fortunately for me my cat was alot more forgiving than your snake!!!!


As for feeding it is what you feel comfortable with, and remember when a snake is constricting it's muscles are soo tight that it would have to be a pretty nasty rodent to get through their scales.
