Rats of various sizes. Sometimes up to 50 or 60. When you have snakes that range in price from $300 to $3K+, you don't feed them live prey.;)

Just curious why you don't feed them live prey. Is it the risk to the snakes from the rats? Was it hard to train them to eat dead food?

When I had a boa constrictor, we fed him live mice.
 
My corn snake has been injured before when I fed him a live mouse. Took forever to heal, and I felt so bad.

So far three folks I will never visit. Thanks for the warning folks. :ohmy:

That reminds me, Craig. Didn't one of your "girls" have a bun in the oven? We never saw the baby pic.
 
Uh, well, my son is an wildlife enironmental specialist and when he was in school, there was a coyote outside during the day running amok. Coyotes are usually shy and nocturnal, but they noticed it was foaming at the mouth and they shot it. And decapitated it and put the head in my freezer, so 'they could test it and see if it was rabid.'

GET. IT. OUT!!!!

After that, they were required to defrost and bleach my freezer.
 
My ex put a dead hawk in my freezer. At least it was in a bag. I'm not sure what he was going to do with it. The way we got it was very strange. We were moving out of the log cabin. There was an eagle that kept showing up on the windy road we were driving on. Then it threw the dead hawk in our path. Felt like bad medicine/juju.

He thought you looked hungry, and was trying to feed you. A nice interspecies gesture.

The nail on the head! Snakes can't be "trained", they can be conditioned to environmental stimulation.;)

Signs were there but no copulation. Maybe next season.

Well, Valentines Day is coming up. Some music, some rats dipped in chocolate, a little privacy, who knows? :LOL:

25 packs of breakfast links (8 per)
10 half pound chubs of breakfast sausage
Pint+ duck stock
leftover deer chili (probably destined for hot dogs)
box of pie crusts
some spring rolls
a bag of scallops
a bag of "soup" seafood
a bag of some greek cheese (shredded)
butter and misc other things in the door racks
ice

25! packs - a sale?
? I want seafood soup. What's that?
 
Oh, okay. I guess that slipped by me. I still want to know about the seafood, tho.
 
Were you a dancer? :ermm::ohmy::LOL:

We had a gecko that sometimes ate "pinkies" (one day old, hairless mice). We were raising mice to feed the gecko. Well, a friend had a friend who couldn't afford to feed her boa. So, since we already had the mice, we got the boa.
 
From this day forward I am going to no one's home to eat. I will stay home and do my own cooking. And if you show up at my door, please do not bring any food. I will provide everything needed. :ermm:
 
My freezer is frighteningly empty. One package of farmers sausages, some lonely sauerkraut, a box of cookie dough, and a LOT of soup bones. There are some loaves of bread and some boxes of ice cream in there, but methinks I'd better start loading up!
