How do I feed a rat to a python?

Lol I know you’re not supposed to kill it first. I did it, I just put it in the tank and the snake didn’t hesitate she just grabbed him and choked the life from his poor little body :( thanks guys!

wow, 10 feet?! This one’s about 5 feet. haha she’s as tall as me. =D

dont take the snake out and put it in a box or a bathtub, if your scared to feed it no doubt youll be scared to pick ot up, try to catch it, or know what to do if it bites you or anything. just place the rat in the tank I have a 10 foot carpet python by the way

Put the live rat in with the snake. The python is a hunter. It will track and capture, then eat the rat. If it isn’t hungry it will ignor the rat.

My friend puts the rat in the bath-tub and then puts the snake in after it. It works flawlessly because the contrast between the cold tub and the warm rat make it easier for the snake to track its meal.

first kill the rat. Then either pick it up or get something else to do that. Then dump it in.
