    What if the prey has recently been medicated?

    I work in a pet store and we have a group of rats that have been medicated with Baytril for what will be at least 20 days. The store I work in sells rats as both pets and feeders, so I was wondering if anyone on here knew of any published research that showed implications that feeding a snake a rat that had been on medication could lead to ill-effects in the snake. Does anyone know how long medication remains in the rats tissues? I am trying to put together a packet of information to pass on to the managers of the store so that we can avoid selling these rats as feeders, since they have been medicated.

    Thank you, any advice or resources are greatly appreciated!
