It is very well known that people are trying to keep people from having snakes for pets which in my opion is wrong because it interfears with the freedom of rights because this is a free world. So people has made it to where we can not get live rats to feed our snakes which makes me so mad because it is so stupitd. So for us to be able to have pet snakes so please breedrs if all can put your snakes on mice as for feeders atleast for the small snakes I know on the large snakes you can not or atleast before you sell them have them on mice so for us people that has them for pets we can find food for them. I do not know about all states but here in Mississippi I can not get live feeder rat pupps for my 6 month old ball python. So please don't let this happen so we can keep enjoying our snakes as pets. I have not had good luck at all at getting my bp to change over from rat pupps to mice he just refuse to eat a mice and all he wants is live pupps so breeders helps us in any way all can it sure would greatful and helps us alot to.
