I am definitely "okay" right now with wanting a snake. The care and handling do not bother me a bit. Not even cleaning the cages out.

However,one thing I am kind of uneasy is feeding. Does anyone have any tips on how I can eventually feel comfortable with the thought of feeding the snakes? Obviously I have to be okay with that or I can't own snakes. The thought of feeding a live or frozen rat gives me the heebie jeebies. LOL.

I would definitely like to see the feeding process up close. Hopefully I can make some friends with people who will show me this so I won't be afraid of it so much.

So..tips, stories, etc on how to make the feeding process a relatively easy(depending on the snake) process/experience?

Many thanks to all the helpful herpers here! You've all been so helpful in my quest to learn everything I can. And the photos help too!
