    Re: Is live feeding really that dangerous?

    Feeding live (and F/T) for over 25 years. There are advantages and disadvantages to both- do research, ask others for their experiences and make an educated choice. Although I have seen severe bites and injuries to snakes from live prey, the percentage of injury is very very low if the keeper IS RESPONSIBLE AND USES COMMON SENSE. The best analogy I can give is this: the risk of injury from eating an apple is very low and humans eat apples every day, yet there is a small percentage that chokes on the apple seeds and die. Does that mean we all stop eating apples?
