We have fed ours in a separate feed tank since we started keeping six or seven years ago and it is a habit we intend to keep as long as stress levels stay low. In all of those years, we've only had one regurgitate. Never any bites while feeding.



But, and this will earn some head shakes, the other reason they are fed in a separate tank is we feed some of our snakes live. Yes, we know, we know. They are never left unattended, we make sure the prey is dead before they are left alone. We've tried to change but the few that are older will not be converted. So we don't want live prey running around the snakes enclosure.



We're in the process of trying to find a larger container until hubby gets the chance to build something. Thanks both of you for the advise.
