Dumb question... But curiosity killed the cat...
Hey,
This is probably the most dumb question you've ever heard, but after discussing it theoritically with someone I was curious
Would a ball python (actually any breed of snake really) eat a piece of turkey if presented to them? 🤔
Re: Dumb question... But curiosity killed the cat...
I have heard stories of snakes like boas taking pieces of raw meat like chicken, turkey...etc.

One thing...keep in mind that raw poultry generally carries Salmonella, which generally can effect dogs & cats. In recent years, some are convinced to feed commercially-
available "raw diets" to their pets, & fyi, I'm on the email list of https://www.dogfoodadvisor.com/ & there are frequent alerts for recalls of contaminated pet foods (often
with Salmonella). Just because you "can" doesn't mean it's a good idea...;)
The OTHER thing: even if your BP isn't picky now & takes it, there's no guarantee that he won't like it better & want it ALL the time, & thereafter reject rodents.
Like they say, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"...this could backfire, because like I say, it's NOT a complete food for snakes, & BPs are quirky eaters.
