    Feeding after co2 chamber

    Can a snake be given a rat right after it comes out of a co2 chamber. It's made of a cooler via a paintball gun co2 tank. Thanks.

    The only issue would be a increased chance of parasites transferred to the snake. I have found parasites in feeders from 2 of 3 of my suppliers one of them is quite well known... I would figure that they are there and that semi regular fecals and perhaps treatment will be needed.
