Hi,

My BP is around a year old and has been off of his food for 2.5months now. Ive kept his husbandry perfect and handling to a minimum bvut he wouldnt eat at all. SO, today I was feeding my Taiwan Beauty snake some chicks, and I decided to chuck one in the BPs tub to see if he'd be interested (I had doubts as I dont think Ive ever read about a BP eating chicks on this site). Anyway, he scoffed the lot straight away, no hesitation. Im not sure if this was the switch from mice/rats to chicks which made him eat, or whether it was just his day to break the fast.

Anyway, the purpose of this post is to see if any one else out there feeds chicks? And what are the nutritional values of such a food item? Chicks are ideal for me as they only cost £0.06 each!!

Cheers

SHOTTY
