"in cases where administration is difficult, it can be given with a meal"

Yes, that's exactly what I stated. And with snakes, dosing via a thin tube is as easy as pie in my opinion, and really couldn't be simpler.

Now a person not feeling comfortable doing it?.....certainly, but "difficult",...no way. I think it is probably comparable to a person being coordinated enough to eat a meal with a fork to be quite honest. To me, it was never anything more than "common" sense as to the physical administration. But many people are intimidated by all sorts of simple everyday things as we all know.
