Pretty pathetic that someone would upload that and gloat about it, and as people have said in some of the Youtube comments :-

1: Snakes generally kill their food before they eat it
2: It's hardly natural behaviour, in nature the chick would generally would have parents to defend it, heck, a pissed off adult rooster is not to be trifled with.
3: It's irresponsible to feed live bait to snakes, not because of any moral issues, but because of the potential damage the bait can inflict on the snake. I've heard of snakes getting their eyes bitten out by live rats before, it's a pretty dumb thing to risk (like some other idiot on Youtube who feeds live shrews to his monitor lizard, when some of them are actually venomous).
