    Yeah he seems to be a good feeder once he gets it in his mouth correctly. He strikes immediately when I dangle it. I would rather not tub-feed to be honest. I think he would feel more secure in his own home. I have not had him long and the previous owner fed him that way. I'm transitioning him. Last time he took one rat in the tub with me dangling, and the other in his home a few minutes later with me just leaving it there.

    Our other BP is a big 1600 gram female and she is also a drop feeder (had not heard that term before). She will basically eat anything, any time. We had to transition her from live rats, so I'm super proud of her feeding progress. She was also very nasty when we got her, and now will only bite sometimes. We just set her food in her home when she's not looking at night, to discourage striking and aggression.
