SatanicIntention,
So do you agree with my suggestion of using the tongs? I also never said anything about placing it in a feeding bin, I agree that RTB (large snakes in general) should be fed in their enclosures. Also it is always a good idea when someone ask for suggestions to list more than one reason unless there is only one answer so they can figure what way suits them best. We got newbie here who is looking for advice and your discrediting washing your hands, c'mon now. I do agree once the scent is picked up by the snake watch out, but you also have to read the introduction that said two people are going to present. One to kill the rat, the other holds the snake (common sense if you know snakes). I'm not trying to discredit you, because I have noticed you give out good advice ( I checked out previous posts) but my goal on this forum is to educate and get all snake owners in the practice of great husbandry. This is just my 2 cents so take it for what its worth.. P.S. To all on this forum have a great weekend.
