From a Jain perspective, no—you should not ask anyone to live-feed a snake in order to “practice ahimsa.”

In Jain Dharma:

• Ahimsa means non-violence in thought, speech, and action.
• We should not cause, approve of, or arrange violence.
• If a snake is kept as a pet, its care should be handled in the least हिंसक way possible.
• A human deliberately setting up live killing is not aligned with Jain ahimsa.

If your parents are not Jain, the best Jain approach is to not involve them in live feeding for religious reasons. Instead, you can:

• care for the snake responsibly,
• avoid unnecessary harm,
• and if the snake needs live prey as a matter of survival, seek a humane and lawful solution through proper animal-care guidance.

Jain dharma values compassion, restraint, and minimizing harm—not creating situations where another living being is made to suffer for a religious label.

If you want, I can also explain how Jain ahimsa applies to keeping pets and feeding animals in simple terms.
