Mike actually brought up a good point, which I highly agree with.



Your snake should be getting fed in his own enclosure.

If you are worried about aspen sticking to the food item, do this simple thing. Clear out the aspen where the hide box is, exposing the bottom of the cage which would now be free of aspen, and put the food item on the cage bottom. Place the hidebox back over the original area, and let him go in the hidebox to find the food. That way, he can eat in the privacy of his hidebox.



If you are thawing out the mice, just make sure they are really dry, and then you may not have much of a problem with any aspen sticking to it. Or better yet, place a small plastic dish or container with the food item in the cage, so he can eat it there while it is on top of the aspen.



Hope this helps!
