There's also the fact that the dead prey will leave bacteria and possibly blood (if it's a bleeder, some are when they thaw and it is gross ) on the substrate or reptile carpet, which is not sanitary. And if you feed on ANY sort of loose substrate (aspen, whatever, anything that's not one piece of reptile carpet), you risk the snake accidentally eating some of the substrate along with the mouse, and getting impacted.BrentlySnow said:Sorry if this is an odd question, but what are the "alot of reasons" for feeding your snake in a seperate container, the only one i no of is keeping the sent of food away from his tank.
