Wow, that was a really nice response. I can see you are going to be a true asset to the forum.Originally Posted by Macropodus
Well, KMG, if you have to ask the question then you probably won't understand the answer. The short answer is cause I want to. We could stop here, but I'm waiting for the rain to let up a bit before we take out the garbage and pick up the mail.
We keep pet snakes, not DNA coiled up in drawers waiting to be proved out. Our enclosures consist of 10, 20, and 40 gallon tanks with high visibility and so we are aware of when snakes venture from their hides. We then can take them out for handling, feeding, and maintenance.
Hope this helps, and sorry to hear about your difficulty understanding, lack of imagination, and your bloody circuses - hopefully your situation will improve. If it's any consolation I'll give you a bow for your "useful post"
I asked a simple question but I see there is no simple answer. "Cause I want to" is a great answer though and certainly is doing what is best for your collection. Step outside the world of docile Ball Pythons and get a snake like the ones in my collection. I bet you will no longer "want to" feed that way.
Except when feeding live it is not the recommended method and is only asking for trouble. Not to mention the complete waste of time and energy.
I hope your response to me at least made you feel better.
