I've been told that to feed inside the cage the snakes would associate you opening their cage with getting fed and be more likely to strike/bite. I am going to start feeding them inside their cage from now on because, I'll tell ya, after handling the rats or just killing them, and then putting my hand in there to try and get them out, I sweat bullets!!! Some times I'd have to cover thier heads with a cloth so I can get a hold of them without them coming aroung and taking a bite. Thanks for the info. I'll start doing that.
