Me (bp.net learned) vs. My boyfriend (Petco learned)

[Willowy]

If you take them out to feed they'll think there's a possibility they'll be fed? LOL. I actually hope you were just kidding. Feeding in the enclosure is simply about saving time and it's much easier then having to relocate, also you're not handling a snake after it's eaten so no risk of regurgitating. There is no difference between feeding in the tank or moving to feed elsewhere, it's simply a matter of preference.

I just wanted to point out actual facts instead of assumptions that you posted.

If, say, every other time you take them out of the tank they get fed, I can only assume they'll start to make pattern associations. But I've never known a snake whose owners chose to take them out of the enclosure for feeding so I will defer to those with experience. It just makes no sense to me.
