wow i cant believe this thread turned into correcting me and my opinnion regarding cage aggression. HAHA ok well in my experience with larger snakes burms etc. u dont feed in there tank simply because your hand becomes a target im sorry that it really chapped your behinds that i said that. I believe that it def. has somthing to do with striking at hands when cahes are opened. also i dont enjoy having a snake eye my hand and lunge out of the tub when i open it simply because he or she assumes its feeding time. this is a joke the guy is asking legit questions and all u can talk about is cage aggression get over it, ur opinion really does not bare more weight than mine hahahaha. thanks just help the poster, and i still believe feeding in tub will result in cage "mis fires" if thats better lol. also for your info i feed my snakes in tubs when time is an issue but doing this regularly could easily train your snake.
