Re: Feliz - Venezuelan "Dwarf" BCC
Feliz is looking quite dapper these days Dave. Bring on those small rats! Do you feed other prey types to your critters? I feed mostly rats but I'll toss them a chick or mouse sometimes.

Thanks EL-Ziggy! Yeah, really loving how Feliz is turning out on all levels.
He's still packing on the weight, and being a BC, don't want to rush the small rats. He's probably ready, but I'll feed one more weaned rat, and then go to smalls.
I've never heard anything bad about offering different prey types, except maybe to BP's because they can imprint on a favorite food. In Shayna's (BP) case, she eats F/T rats, so let that be.
Having said that, nutritionally, mice and rats, I hear, are similar, certainly when adults. What I am potentially interested in doing is offering Yafe (Carpet python) and the boas some kind of bird prey. I imagine the nutritional content of a bird is different than a mouse or rat. Of course, many people feed mice and rats for the long lives of their snakes.
Long story short, I am potentially interested in mixing things up for some of the snakes.

I believe that birds have a lot less fat.

Thank you for posting this Caitlin! I know Tommy Carpenter, who I got Feliz from at TC Reptile, did not breed his last year. Good to know some are available.
I cannot say enough about how cool these dwarf boas are.
