just curious as to other peoples experience and opinions on the topic of feeding snakes in a tub outside the enclosure or feeding them in their enclosure and using tap training to avoid getting bitten. i leaned towards the feeding tub option as the babies are currently sharing the enclosure and i don't want them fighting over food and at this point i'd say they're established in their routine, i can reach in and get them out of the enclosure anytime and never get a defensive snake or have them bite me unless i'm dumb enough to smell like rat when i put my hand in there haha although i found that now they seem to know what the drill is in the tubs, as soon as they go in there they go straight to feeding mode, before i even touch or begin thawing the food they get ready to strike me coz they know it's feeding time.
so just curious if anybody else has done the same and noticed how quickly they go to a feeding response when put in the tub and other peoples experience feeding a snake in the enclosure and how that drill works out for them and whether they have to tap the snakes nose before handling it so it knows it's not being fed yet.
