Ok, I might have spoke too soon about your snake not being big enough to eat the fuzz, however I will share my experience if I may. I feed many of my snakes outside their cages, but in white deli cups with white lids on them, sitting on a heating pad that is on the lowest setting, not to overheat the snake, and turn off the lights in my snake room, or place a towel or matterial that shuts out the light of the container and then leave it alone for about an hour and even my most reluctant feeders eat, as they did last night-, 3 baby black rats, 2 baby bulls, 2 baby speckled kings, and one sub adult gray band. The most reluctant feeders I left for 2 hours and all went well. Now, as you can see there are many ways to skin a kitten as shown here. Please do what you feel is right and these guys on here know their stuff , we just do what we have found to work for us and our animals. Good luck!
