I spend most of the time trying to slowly slide the door open opposite the side they are on and then shove the food in there on big BBQ tongs haha. I have had Caesar literally shoot out about 2 feet with mouth open out an open door to get a guinea pig that i hadnt even put in yet. I jumped back, fell over a chair but still had the tongs in my hand with the guinea pig on the end of it lol.

    The little ones are so cute to feed as they are like a mini version of the big guys but i can hold the rat tail and basically hold a little snake ball in the air haha.....until the mouse/rat tail skin slides off.

    Oh and i almost had Vicky get me 2 times in a row now. She is 6 feet. She has been extra hungry the past couple months and the second a door is slid open if she smells food and she is lunging lol. She is in shed now which might explain it. Cant wait to see her after shed.
    For real dude. This is why I feed Phyllis and Gerald with 40” tongs. They are STUPIDLY foody. When Phyllis misses she can come close to 3’ out of the cage and it’s no joke. I open her door with a hook, rodent on tongs in the other hand and then have to go two hands on the tongs and brace for impact. It’s seriously impressive how hard and fast she strikes. Shakes the whole cage stack.
    And Gerald just lunge/flails with his mouth open in the direction of anything that smells like rodents hahah. Spring loaded muscle with teeth
