If hatchlings did start feeding after a ride, and they continued to feed from that day forward in the exact same environment they were kept in before, it would mean the conditions were just fine that they were kept in, but the snake itself was stimulated for whatever reason(s) to feed simply by the continuous vibration of the RIDE itself. This would be like what I was describing earlier that it could very likely be the vibrations and movement ITSELF that gets them to crawl around and gets their "on-the-move" predation senses working more.
