Both of these events were only early 2018, so I don't have the excuse of it being "back in the day", but...
I tried the whole "feeding in a separate enclosure" the very first time I fed my first snake since I had read that you were supposed to - that was also the day I got my first bite, trying to put her back in her cage. Thankfully I don't get spooked by things like that (sorry, Saturn, if an upset 1000lb horse doesn't scare me then your little 600g self can't no matter what you try) and saw how stressed she was, so I decided not to do that to her again. Then I belatedly discovered this forum, started lurking, and realized that what I had initially read about feeding in enclosures was wrong anyway.
I also had a minor tape incident, but luckily that was with the extremely patient ball python so getting it off her was easy enough. No tape goes ANYWHERE near snakes now.
