i always feed mine in their vivs, purely for the fact of im not trying to shove a 12ft burm in a box to feed it, couldnt think of anything more dangerous when at a size over 4ft, and even then theres no reason unless they are co habiting, just my personal opinion.
i use newspaper as a substrate, free, easy to clean, no ingestion.
as sylvias said, great snake providing u can house them correctly and afford to feed when fully grown. although i dont find feeding a strain on my bank account and i get peanuts, but its def something to take in to consideration.
i also always buy from a breeder who is reputable. price is lower and u can see what state the animals are kept in.x
