    IF there was a vegan diet option for BPs...

    ...Would you feed it to your snakes? We'll say the nutrition is equivalent, and they are somewhat rat-shaped.

    I'm sure there would be some people who'd go for it.

    No I would not...even if they were equal in the nutrition department.

    Really?

    None?

    Zero?

    Nil?

    Zip?

    Nada?

    LOL.

    Carnivores eat meat.

    But animals with a brain the size of a raisin shouldn't be able to stump an animal with the brain the size of a cantaloupe.

    I'd bet you could get most of them to switch over provided the right scent and proper temps were there.

    But hey, maybe not.
