Maybe. I am not entirely sure on that.

He has a lot more hands on knowledge with snakes than I do so maybe I should just take his word for it? I've never personally had a snake just a few friends. One had an eleven foot ball python, another had this pretty orange snake, and I don't know what the other had. Most things I know about snakes are knowledge through books and what I've gathered from helping feed and when I used to catch snakes, lizards, and salamanders as a kid.

It's really only my recent fear and colourful imagination that would prevent him from feeding live.
