You know how you feel after you stuff yourself at xmas dinner? Well, imagine eating six times that much, then having a giant picking you up by your belly.

Ditto to what Sdaji said. Plus it can cause them to regurgitate the food....never a good thing. In smaller snakes this can cause problems with their digestive system. Plus...I don't know about you, but when I stuff myself silly I like to be able to sleep it off in peace :wink:

If I ate six xmas dinners then had someone pick me up and play with me, I'd probably regurgitate

No worries, but you're supplying the six dinners (they must be high quality) and the giant.

As long as they're cooked well. I haven't eaten bunny for ages, I miss it. Hehe, when I was a teenager I used to go out catching them once or twice a week

I'm not a snake, sorry. Treating me like a different species will violate the parameters of the experiment
