Quick Question...

Go Penguins!!!
Has anyone ever experienced the foot or paw of the feeder getting stuck in the mouth of their snake? And the snake having a hard time getting it unstuck?
 
Occasionally it happens, and they have to manuver their jaw to get around it. It shouldn't be a huge concern, but just watch to make sure they get it down. Usually this happens with "breech feeding" or swallowing from the bottom up. When a snake swallows, they usually swallow from the head down and as they swallow the lags just are forced against the prey items body, because that's a natural position. When they breech feed, they swallow backwards and sometimes the arms or legs are not forced into a natural position and it makes it awkward for them to swallow.

Hope this helps!
