My BP almost never misses and usually has great aim and gets the head. Then there's my female corn snake, she's a dainty little eater most of the time. She will literally take the feeder off the tongs ever so gently and slowly lower herself to eat. She doesn't even try to constrict most of the time. It's almost like she went through some sort of upper class etiquette training for table manners! Hahahahaha!!! Makes me wonder how such a gentle, beautiful animal could survive in the wild.
My adult Amel Stripe corn is also a classy eater .
He will eat off my hand , he just slithers up to it and kinda slides though it in one motion rather like a whale swallowing plankton if that makes any sense
