I understand those of you with large collections need to feed dead, but as far as someone with a pet, I think that the only reason live/stunned is dangerous is if the owner is too lazy to watch the whole thing through. I feed my snakes stunned and always have. I use tongs so that the snakes get the head first bite, and then wait until they start eating to close the tub. If you dont have time to do this, then yeah, feed dead. I personally havent had any problems with MY snakes eating live. (knock on wood)
