Default do you feed you royals in there viv or outside?

Hi i'm just wondering how many people feed there royals in the snakes viv or do you move them to a feeding box etc..

when i had my corn i used to feed the snake in a plastic tub.

i have a 6 month python for about 7 days now. i tried feeding her wednesday in a plastic tub but she just hissed at the rat near her....

My plan was to wait a week then try feeding her again in the viv so she won't be as stressed.... I planed on seeing if she would strike the rat if not i was going to leave it in her viv over night... a good idea?

the shop told me she was eating 2 rat fuzzies a week ...

any advice...

Always in their RUB/viv. I use newspaper as a substrate so no need to concern myself with them ingesting something they shouldn't.
