Serpentia Straight Tip Feeding Tongs 45cm – Stainless Steel Reptile Forceps

Serpentia Straight Tip Feeding Tongs 45cm are long stainless steel feeding forceps designed for safer, more controlled feeding of reptiles and other exotic animals. The 45cm length helps keep your hands further from the strike zone, making feeding easier where extra reach, precision and confidence matter.

Made from high-quality satin-finish stainless steel, these feeding tongs are durable, practical and easy to maintain. The straight-tip design allows accurate food presentation, while the serrated inner jaws help grip prey items more securely during feeding.

Why Choose 45cm Feeding Tongs?

Long feeding tongs are especially useful for species that strike quickly, enclosures with more depth, or situations where you want greater separation between your hands and the animal. They also help improve hygiene by reducing direct contact with food items during feeding.

The built-in ratchet handle allows the tongs to be locked to varying degrees, helping improve grip and control when handling food or feeder items.
