I have a baby crawl cay boa in a 19L rub and she's fed either inside or outside, same as my other snakes, can't vote as you don't have an option for feeding both inside and outside.
I feed in the rub and use beech chips for substrate, If im leaving the prey in over night it goes on newspaper but if the snake is going to take it almost straight away or strike feeds I dont bother.
my snakes are all on substrate
I feed in the RUB/VIV
but before I feed I put a sheet of kitchen roll down
feed over the kitchen paper and they get to stay home while they eat
... the tricky part is getting the paper out later

i feed in the viv or rub, but i use newspaper, i don't like particle substrate because of ingestion risks and other reason such as easier maintenance, hygienic reasons etc.
I use RUBS and aubiose too. I usually put the food onto newspaper on top of the aubiose for feeding. Works for some, others just pull the food under the paper so I generally let them please themselves.
I did feed out, but when you have more than three or four, it takes on heck of a long time to do....
All mine are on newspaper, I get mine free from work, it's easy to roll up when soiled and throw away, less mess, no chance of importing mites and other infestations...

That was my other thought, if it was clinical, i could see problems. but then my mind say's would you like to live on paper all your life, i want my snake to be comfortable
Hi I feed both mine in there rubs for my boa on aspen I try and move most of it out the way before feeding, my tai beauty on orchid doesn't let the mouse even touch the floor :2thumb:
i feed in my tubs i use aspen so just make sure the mice/rats are dry
