Can you feed a ball python degus?

Raptor I understand what your saying. I dont like the idea of people being cheap and feeding pets to snakes. There always will be free animals on craigslist and people take advantage of it and that is wrong

But some people have mice and rats for pets

Pretty much all the prey items we feed to snakes are pets to someone. It's the owners fault for not researching the buyer. This goes for anyone. People selling snakes, dogs, cats, horses, cows, etc.

Its all good bman, no hard feelings on my part. i like it when people are honest with me anyways i don't like to beat round the bush so i hate it when people don't tell me like it is. i respect it and appreciate it. don't feel too bad, i didn't get upset, and i do understand where you are coming from and to an extent i agree with your point of view.

I'm not trying to be a ass and I'm sure I came across that way, but there are too many what if's here. I dont think it is worth it to save on food cost because it may backfire in his/her face

I'm much happier reading a 'What if ?', thread than a 'I did this !' thread, shows that the OP had the presence of mind to think and ask about his idea first.

If his/her thread had been.....

' OMG ! I fed my BP a free Degus that I got off Craigslist and it bit my BP real bad... Help! '

or

' My BP won't eat rats after I fed it 4 Degus that I got off Craiglist... help! '

Then for sure I'd fully expected him/her to be blasted!!!

To the OP, well done for asking first, there is a lot of experience here on BP.net and the fact you listened to advice is awsome

I admit I jumped the gun and I apologize again.
