How do you feed?

[m00kfu]

My question is how do you feed live to your snake? On snakebytes I see them holding the mouse by the scruff of the neck with tongs. Others talk about just dropping the mouse in and leaving it for 15-60 minutes.

Thoughts and suggestion?

Actually, you're probably thinking of 8 Ball Pythons feeding video. At BHB they usually just hold the live rat by the tail, unless I missed the tongs thing in a recent episode.

Anyways, I usually just drop the rat in the tub after pre-scenting for an hour or two and let the snakes do their thing.
