is it ok to let your python take its meals from the branches in there enclosures? or should they be on a nice flat surface?

because my jungle is eager as anything to eat off her branches and it's a real pain trying to get her down onto the floor.
 
they can eat hanging from a branch if they want to. Jungles normally will eat more readily if they are sitting in branches.
 
Its fine to feed your Jungle from the branches, as it keeps your python active and mimics searching for food in the wild.
 
they are fine feeding from branches....I am always careful to stay with them though there is always a risk if they fall from a really tall height that they can hurt themselves so if I think mine are going to overbalance or something like that I make sure I am there to catch them just in case....I know it sounds silly but if they fall at the wrong angle they can break their ribs or worse
 
I usually hide sookies rats somewhere in the braches ion her tank,make her hunt it down.She is uncomfortable eating on the floor of her home and will drag her food into the branches to devour it.
Fantazmic is soooo right.not too high tho serious injury can occur.but it is cool to watch them.
