How do you feed your BPs?

[Beardedragon]

Ive had my snake get bit twice feeding live so ive been trying to do prekilled lately inside his enclosure. I cant see why some people do outside their tank, id think it would increase stress( possibly leading to regurg if something were to go wrong) and unless you smell like a rat/mouse/asf your snake should not strike at you.

i feed em in enclosure, Kaa sometime makes me kill it first and do the zombie dance, but usually kills em himself as long as its night
lilith though she cant wait to kill em i can feed her anywhere and she,s fine but prefer enclosure

I feed my bp in the cage but my corn outside the cage. I don't have tongs so when I feed my corn prekilled pinkies I dangle the pinkie with my fingers(NOT A GOOD IDEA). My bp eats live so I just drop the mouse in there with it.

I only have one snake and I feed him in my hamster's old tank (it still has his soaked bedding) and I leave him in there for a few seconds to get him kinda hungry by smelling the hamster and I feed him, then pick him up and movie him to his cage. It works perfectly and there has been no issues at ALL.

Thats a good idea! If only I kept my old hamsters cage...

Both live in their tanks.....My bp will not eat f/t, i've tried multiple times, and its too much of a hassle. Besides I find it cheaper to have your own live breeding pairs. Where I live getting frozen is very hard to do, I have to drive 1 1/2 hours one way to get them! I live in a pretty rural area. My King snake gets live because my bp does. I think she gets mad at me if I give her f/t and him live. Their tanks are right next to each other. And she will watch him stalk and eat his live mouse.....and the last time I only had f/t for her she literally ignored it completely until a good hour after he finished his live mouse, and she realized she wasn't getting one herself. Then she ate the f/t because she's a piggy and wont actually refuse food....

She's weird like that, she always finishes her mouse a LOT faster than he finshes his.....and she will watch him finish his when her's is done. As if he may *not* eat it, and she get get through the glass and steal it. She doesn't watch him ever...unless its feeding time. Its interesting.

I still have a hamster so I just switch him between the two cages so he'll soak each one really good. xD I just hope my snake never gets out because I know he'd go right for the little hammie.

I went to feed mine today. I feed it in a seperate cardboard box like the ones you get from the petstore to take your pet home. I drop the live mouse inside and close the lid to keep the snake from being disturbed or making an escape route for the mouse. I barely got mouse inside and my snakes head flew out of the crack in the box trying to get the mouse still dangling from my hand. It was pretty funny.
