The bashing of teeth comment, doesn't deserve a response. You seem awfully angry for someone agreeing with slim saying it's ok to let the snake do what it's built to do without extra steps such as feeding the rodent. I don't see why people are getting so worked up over he subject outside of the bashing of teeth idea.
How is it unnecessary if it could prevent a bite? If a rat is running around a snake enclosure alot of times the snake may grab the rat in awkward position and get bit. If the rat is distracted and sitting still eating, the snake can make sure it grabs the rat in a good spot. P.s i tried it today and my snake took its time making sure she aimed and got the best possible strike ive seen from her yet.
