also eating live doesn't necessarily mean there's a feeding issue. it could just mean preferred method by the breeder/seller and not the snake.

I assume that by "bamp," you are calling me an idiot? At least that's the definition.
Anybody is free to purchase reptiles that eat live. I'm just saying I wouldn't. The poster may not know the headaches that sometimes come with switching live feeders over to feeding on frozen / thawed.
In any event, please don't answer a comment by name-calling. It's childish.
1. i see your perspective on feeding.
2. bamp = modern internet lingo for "bump" aka bumping a thread To The Top aka TTT
Re: Window shopping.... or.... damn you morphmarket.
I am still around just not saying much. I did pass on her simply because I am focusing on other things like husbandry right now. Just thought was beautiful. Temptation is always there. I don't have a blood in my collection. Want to learn as much about every species I can.
