    Feeding off rat with a head tilt?
    I have a rat that has a head tilt that developed about 2 weeks ago that disappeared then came back again a few days ago. I am not taking a feeder rat to the vet so I figured I could just feed her off to one of my big girls. Does any one see any issues with that? The only thing I am worried about is feeding off a rat that has a possible infection.

    A head tilt is often sign of an inner ear infection.

    Beat me to it! In most animals, a head tilt is inner ear.

    Wont harm the snake at all. Only time to worry about feeding live is when theres fleas.

    Otherwise anything a mouse/rat has will not transfer as its species specific.
