What else can we feed our BPs aside from rodents

[rabernet]

I still stick to my initial statement that if a BP is hungry enough, it will eat anything small that moves. Maybe captive bred BPs would allow themselves to starve to death if no mice are available, but the primary goal of any creature in nature is to live, mice or no mice. BPs included.

I'm curious to what studies you can cite to back this statement up? Captive bred BP's are no different than wild hatched ball pythons. We're only a few generations removed - their instincts are the same.
