    any benefit to feeding rabbits at a young age?

    Hey all,
    I found a video on YouTube where a guy said that he feeds small rabbits to his snakes as early as possible because it results in better growth by the snake. He reasoned that because rabbits were leaner than rats that they are digested better and result in a healthier leaner and larger snake. And that their poops stink less. Haha!! Has anybody had similar experiances with feeding small rabbits to their snakes? Any and all input is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kale

    I find that with rabbits it smells worse, i know a guy that feeds pinky rabbits to his bps and they seem to be growing at the same rate as with rats or mice

    Well, it won't count for much but i've dealt with a few burms that were only feed rats by their previous owners. They were smaller than my burms (who got rabbits as soon as they could take them), but a whole lot stronger and heavier. Take that as you will.
    'Tics, burms, balls, and geckos. A bunch of them.

    Thanks for the input. Very interesting. I wish I could find that video again. If I do I'll be sure to post it. I'll have to think about it.
