Advantage to feeding in the enclosure? Not having to move a 200 lb snake who is in food mode.

:Hi,

:I've seen several post with people feeding their pythons within a separate "feeding enclosure." I have a few questions, regarding this approach.
:1)What are the advantages of feeding my retic within a separate "feeding enslosure?"

:2)Is ther any disadvantages of feeding my retic within the enclosure that I house them in?

:3)At what age should I feed my retic within a separate feeding enclosure?
:
:Thanks,
:Peter F.
