Hi,

I've only been in the BP community for a few months now, so forgive my n00bness. I've not heard of this feeding method before - restraining the prey until the snake has killed it.

How do you do this, exactly? Where do you grip the prey with the tongs? Are your snakes scared of the tongs at first, or do they ignore them?

Thanks!
