    Death By Hot Dog

    I started a new job Monday and in the training class I overheard a gal talking about a friend who fed his snake hot dogs.....Needless to say she said the thing died. I didn't join in cause the whole discussion was just too ignorant.

    All I can figure that it was being starved to get it to the point it would eat hot dogs. I don't know if it was a BP or not.

    oye...lol. You get a snake...you feed it mice or rats! If you can't handle that .....don't get a snake. You get a burmese or something big like that ....you may have to feed it a rabbit. Same rule applies!

    Sorry just my opinion.

    Hey, but that guy was the Dad on Eight is Enough so I tend to take his word that it's all good.

    Wow that just doesnt seem right. Beef for a snake isnt natural.
    When was the last time you heard of a milksnake taking down a calf.

    I agree with you that they will eat almost anything but what I am trying to say is. Can this really be a healthy staple diet? Being that its beef. Especially pet quality beef.
