Live or F/T?

I have a baby ball and she's on live hopper mice right now. I'm going to be breeding her in the future and was wondering if it would benefit me and her to switch her over to F/T. I was thinking it would be so during breeding it would be easier for her to feed instead of making her chase her food down and have to use a lot of energy killing it then eating it.

If ya'll have anything I would love to hear it. Thanx:D

I would swich her over

Keep her on live, as long as its consistent and easy for you. I like feeding live because it's easier and even though you don't want your snake to have to work too hard, they were told by mother nature to hunt, kill, and eat their prey. So let them do what they were meant to do and feed live!

Haha I agree with you steve but, idk. I'm still thinking about...

about it*

I would try switching to live rats first and then work on F/T...

Well in about a month or two im going to be switching her over to ASF's. I just need to build a rack for the colony I already have and get them started.

The reason I don't feed rats is because, I breed mice and its just a lot easier and my balls like them. So it just works.

I prefer F/T, so much easier to keep and store.

Short answer, NO

Whether they breed or not does not matter when it comes to feeding, all my breeders eat live.
