I need some advice on feeding.

[Bogertophis]

My young BP drags her food around the enclosure, practically seasoning her food in bedding...
I've had to pull wood chips out of her mouth because she struggled.


I've had suggestions to use a feeding rock or plate, and I do, but she takes her prize ALL around the enclosure.
Many of you won't like this, but I fed her these past two feedings in a separate container. She seems to be doing well with it.
I don't want to risk regurgitation, but It's like I have to choose between impaction or regurgitation.


Can anyone give me some other tips I can do? I want to feed in the enclosure. Eventually, I'm going to switch to eco-earth because it has smaller particles,
But that won't be until I finish off this cypress mulch.


I need some advice on what I should do for now.

How big is her enclosure? You could move her "furnishings" out of the way before you feed her, & use a shallow flat LARGE box or box lid that covers most of her floor inside her normal enclosure. Like a Sterilite "sweater box". Something that functions like a plate, but I did not mean a literal "plate". Not sure where you got "feeding rock"? It's your snake to deal with but I'd stop moving or handling her for feeding, just for best results. It's not about us "not liking" what you're doing, & for sure, all snakes don't act the same at feeding time. Apparently yours likes to "show-off"?
