you may have to go all out and force feed. I never had to do it with a big snake but for the most part its not hard. you can find alot of great informative videos on youtube. the trick is to wrap the body in a blanket or place it in a tube. better yet get a helper or two. you will have enough trouble wrestling with the head. oddly enough the only snake i had to force feed was a diamond, albeit a tiny baby. good luck and keep us posted!!!
