    What food item would you NOT feed your snake?

    Is there any food item (chicks, rabbits, kittens (O_O), etc,) that you would not feed your snake. And if there is, here's an added catch, what if it was your DREAM snake and he would be for free but he only ate one of the food items that you said you wouldn't feed before?

    Oh, and don't think about the health of the food item in your answer, just your general repulsiveness to feeding it off to your snake.

    Re: What food item would you NOT feed your snake?

    oh god, kittens? neverrrrr thats just... ok imma shut up as I dont wanna get in trouble lol

    id stick to just owning snakes that will be happy eating mice & rats regardless of if it was a free dream snake (piebald/queenbee)

    id rather wait & save up for my dream snake than feed a free dream snake something I would hate myself for.

    All mammals that are "domesticated" are illegal anyway....ie. cats, dogs, so on.

    Re: What food item would you NOT feed your snake?

    I keep mice and rats as pets. I love them. And yet, I feed them (the species not my pets) to my snakes no problem. So, my answer would probably be none, I'd feed anything. Even small children. I don't care for other people's kids. Especially if they whine. When I first read the question I thought of tarantulas, the urticating hairs would be a beotch going down....

    really? I didn't know that.

    I'm pretty sure it's legal for people to eat them, why not snakes?(if I'm wrong about the people part then nevermind).

    I could see animal laws about proper treatment being used to prevent live cats/dogs being fed to snakes, but I don't know of any law that would prevent a humanely p/k dog or cat being fed to snakes.

    Also, I'm pretty sure that chickens are considered every bit a domesticated species as dogs and cats. All farm animals are domesticated.

    Re: What food item would you NOT feed your snake?

    oh I forgot to mention, I wouldn't ever feed a dog or a cat to a snake.. just on principle. I personally don't see any reason it should be illegal to feed them to snakes, and would have no problem with other people doing it, I just find them too cute
