This is a brilliant piece of information, I remember talking to Dave about this when Justin was writing it.
I vote sticky but I'll wait and see what Bob and Gmac think!

Nicely worded and useful bit of opinion. I'd be interested to see if any of this translates to husbandry techniques for reducing non eating times. But this is not appearing to be applicable to seasonal fasting.

Part of me thinks a snake will eat when it wants to and not when we want it to and unless it's health is at stake we shouldn't intervene. I do like te bit on cleanliness though and relating scent to natural behaviour.
