I was freezing frozen rats to mine when I first got him (is that what F/T means?). However, about 6 weeks ago I decided to try live prey.

Now, my snake was eating frozen just fine, but the process took ME several hours... drive to the store, drive back, thaw, warm up, feed. And frankly, I don't have the time for it. Besides, he seems to love live prey. I've only had one meal leave a mark on him so far and it was extremely superficial (a couple scales scratched). I get to see my snake feed in it's more natural state... the snake is happy and I am happy. I also don't see a reason to switch back to frozen.

If one of my meals hurt him, that would be another story. But that has not happened and is not likely to happen.
