Live orf/t

This is not a poll just wondering what you feed your snakes live or f/t

I feed both just in case one stops being available I have a back up, but now I am feeding live because I don't have enough money to order a good brand on the computer right now, and Petco only has Rodent Pro which always are bloody and packaged with their pee/poo, and I don't like that.

My snake is still young and only on mice, I will probably feed f/t when he gets to rats because he is a pretty lazy constrictor and I could see him getting hurt by a rat, but we will see.

I try to do both, but I feed mostly live

I feed what works ;)

Milksnakes I feed F/T mice if I don't have any on hand they eat whatever (not picky)

Pythons and Bullsnakes I feed live rats

Ball Pythons sometimes get F/T rats which usually is the result of having a surplus of rats during the winter.

In other words I feed a bit of everything but my preference is to feed live. (more convenient when you have over 50 snakes.)

I feed live to the BPs, and F/T to the monitors.

I reccomend F/T to most everyone, but honestly, I've rarely ever has an issue with live feeding to mine.

My newly acquired BP has been eating live until this point, but I'm going to be attempting to get him on f/t. The previous owner tried to no avail, but I'm confident we can do it!

I switched my picky eater over to f/t by first getting him used to eating in a separate container, then offering f/t. By feeding him live in the tub for a month, he realized tub=food. So it didn't face him when I wiggled the f/t on some tongs. However, he will not eat it if it is laying still, I have to move it a little bit.

I do not have reliable transportation, and the nearest pet store is several miles away. Also, for some reason I am not too keen on feeding live. Not to say I have anything against those that do. The power of choice and all that. Anyway, I'll try f/t and see how we do.

All my ball pythons, minus the albino feed live, the albino is f/t. I feed my kingsnakes, milksnakes and gopher snakes f/t.

My snake takes either live or f/t. He is just a baby and he is not picky. I have been feeding f/t pretty consistently.
