    Just a quick question about live feeding.

    So I live in Wisconsin, and I've heard that it is illegal in some places to "live feed" your pets. Can anybody confirm this for me? I just really dont know where to look. I'm feeding my BP f/t mice, but I just want to know about live ones for reference in the future, should my BP ever begin to refuse dead prey.

    You can try Google "live feeding laws in WI" and see if that comes up with anything.

    I've honestly never heard of a live feeding law before. Good luck on your search!

    x2.

    I've only heard of Live Feeding laws in Germany. So I'm not much help, besides I resides in Illinois. But a quick google search should yield a good answer, and if not hopefully someone that lives in Wi will have a answer

    I would think that if the snake is legal to own then you cannot oulaw its natural feeding method which is live. Its like saying you can only feed a dog wet food and not dry. But I would be curious to see what you find out.
