And you're lucky your snakes are mellow feeders. Caesar freakin went ballistic Saturday when he smelled the colossal rat. I couldn't get a good grip with the tongs and kept dropping it lol. Caesar came flying out of the cage with mouth open and swaying like Stevie Wonder all over the place. I ended up having to just back up and wait until he went back inside the cage and I opened the other door and laid the rat on top of a hide real quick and shut the door. He came over and when he found it, he went crazy and slammed it and shook the whole dang cage enough to rattle the doors in the tracks lol. He is crazy when it comes to dinner. It's like Jeckyll and Hyde. He's an angel when no food but when food, I guarantee he will mess you up lol.
