I used to do that, but every animal I took in was not used to the increased activity around a class and now all of them are poor feeders. I made the mistake of taking my green tree python during a hunger strike, which probably helped the 6 month period in which he did not eat. 2 horned frogs went, one does not eat on its own anymore, 1 died a few months later from anorexia as well as stress. The african bullfrog refused to eat for about a month as well. Just my experience...make sure the animal is used to that many people being around watching it, touching it, or even just moving around it. Andy
