dude, haha. I actually saw your exact same post but on reddit. Thanks man.
I am going to do what u said. So the way u do it is that instead of cutting it into pieces then into a holed container, you just hang it in the snake room with the door closed. So I am thinking I am just going to put it standing whole on top of a closet in the snake room, close the window and door, take away the water dish and leave it for 24h. Then repeat this weekly. Sounds about right?
