I have yet to feed Demeter in a feeding tub or anything like that. Everyone I have talked to tells me I should be doing that. But, her behaviour has not changed since I've had her. She isn't aggressive towards me, when I go to handle her...

Im not sure if I really need to take her out to feed her? Also, another concern I have is, if I do use a feed tub, what is the best possible way to get her back into her enviroment without her regurging?

I know its the right thing to do, to feed her outside her enviroment so she doesn't occassionate me as food, or whatnot..and maybe her attitude will change as she grows older. But I see no change in her bahavior at this present time.


Thanks in advance for any opinins, advice etc etc.

Well, the whole tub thing is really more for guarding against accidental substrate ingestion. Plus I can give the living quarters a thorough cleaning while the snake is in the feeding tub. You can gently pick the snake up and place it back in it's viv after the meal is down about as far as it's going. I've never experienced a regurge from this brief handling. :cheers:
