![]() My critters oly get prekilled frozen rodents, they are better fed for the most part and are free from parasites. I lost 4 pythons from mites when I fed live food, and feeding my 13ft retic was usualy a big event in the neighborhood. Everyone would come by on feeding day to watch the carnage LOL |

yeah i don't know anything about snakes or their diet.. i was more talking in general.. my actual conversation was specific to fish when i was discussing this subject about live food vs. manufactured food.. i used to have about 10 tanks full of fish and i always fed them live food supplemented with some pellets or flakes.. guess that wasn't the best way to go..
as far as dog food i would only ever feed my dog Nutro Natural Choice - no corn or corn meal.. anything else is garbage.. Well except I heard there is some brand named Chicken Soup or something that is supposed to be as good or better than Nutro.. the cat well he gets whatever is on sale.. i hate cats.. But no idea on snakes, reptiles, snapping turtles, etc.

From what I understand for snakes, live food causes more aggression issues than the prekilled, frozen etc but its very hard to swap from one to the other. A friend used to feed his the frozen mice, but he had to nuke tham and warm them up before the snake would even show interest. |

If I catch one of these babies, the only live food will be feeder golds.
There are HUGE snappers out back, 30lbers at least...I'm gonna need a bigger boat A few weeks ago I was walking the dog and saw something on the water that looked like a white trash bag...odd..I eyeballed it, it was moving. As I approached, I noticed it was a Goose and the movement were snappers quite litteraly tearing it appart. I sat there and watched for what seamed like five minutes in strange awe...these suckers...3 or 4 snappers where lopping off chunks of meat. I was wondering if the goose died anturally or did the snapper get it...they were easliy almost as big as the goose |

Goldfish aren't good for anything, from what I can tell.

Turtle is one of those foods, like crab,that is more trouble than it's worth IMHO.
