Feeding procedure & Variety of foodSnakes are carnivores they eat meat and only

meat. When you feed your snakes make sure you

have a sprat box to feed the snake in so when you put your hand into its cage it doesn't attack you.

You can us live bate or dead it depends on the snake.

When the snake is done eating try not to handle it to much only from out of the box and to the cage because it can cause regurgitation.
