Hey Tom!

To me, in theory, if they're fed in a different cage the chance for feeding response is still there, only then it could happen in the feeding cage instead of its regular cage. I can imagine that "territory" would/could play a role, though.



What I've always done is open their cage, take them out, handle them for awhile, put them back in their cage, feed them.



They almost always come out of the cage on their own, right off the bat, as if they know they're about to get to do some exploring & get some exercise. I've never had anything remotely close to a feeding response or any aggressivenes from them.



Tom, you've been around these big creatures enough to know, would you do me a huge favor & take a look at the pic in this thread and tell me if I'm right about the snake being obese? Here's the thread's link: forums.kingsnake.com/view.php?id=1341313,1341313



Thanks! I'll owe ya one!



Have a good one!
