My take on assist feeding.

[nixer]

What's the downside if the snake eats when assisted and continues to eat after? I understand you want to find the root cause but is there something bad (other than stress) about assisting?

read what she said!
ppl have been wanting to assist feed animals that are obviously well started!
if there is husbandry problems i dont care if its a hatchling or a 4000 grams female they will not eat! period!

sometimes a hatchling just dont catch on to what those those litte white things are and those are the only snake that should be assisted and ONLY if its loosing weight!!!!!!!!!!!!!
