    Feed several HUGE rats, or a rabbit. Guinea pigs are expensive.

    Wow that is a good deal. Where I live GP's are like $15.00 a pop!


    If the GP is preggie and a good breeder you might want to consider letting her deliver and then hey...more food! Just a thought.

    Re: Feeding a Pregant Guinea Pig to a Burm?

    i was planning on having one litter, then freezing the other prego's because i have very limited space......im told its pointless because the extra babies are all just fat cartilage and bone and will just make my snake fat...i can see that

    Re: Feeding a Pregant Guinea Pig to a Burm?

    I guess what's disturbing to me is that these were this guy's kid's pets, and little do they know they're going to be snake food!


    I guess I need to not be such a softie, that's why I have two mice I'm reluctant to feed off - been here since October when Kashmire went on his fast - and now are so tame! I keep buying new ones instead - because they trust me - GAH!!!!!
