Weve been assisting our late 09 female since Christmas, only feeding every 2 weeks. Last week she decided I was obviously not very good at it and she can do better herself. Well this week she must have decided she knows best and struck and fed again. Hopefully she will keep this up as this time she didnt even let me get the rat fully in the RUB, also dont know who was more stressed by the assisting me or her.

congrats on the turn-around with her feeding

and yes, assiting/forcing is stressful all round - not just for the snake
