    Exclamation feeding exotic birds

    2 of our aviary exotic birds died by smashing into the glass door they are exotic finch and parakeet we frooze them in case do u think the python will eat them?

    IF not do u think someone would trade them for rats or mice? they would be great for a bird eating snake like a puffed snake??? or water corbra?

    Most people won't feed anything except rodents due to the fact that the snake may like it better. Not a good thing if the prey item is hard to find or expensive. Just get rid of them.

    I wouldn't think that they would take a bird if they aren't even taking rats for you...

    Re: feeding exotic birds

    Toss'em....Have you ever cleaned up that terrible mess after they let it out the other end???

    I have never fed birds to any of my snakes but my buddy has a few snakes in which there natural diet contains birds.

    I have only seen the cleanup and smell one time it was enough to never have the need or want to feed birds...
