    Re: Is live feeding really that dangerous?

And then I continued to explain my own reasons as to why I personally don't give f/t as they're looking to take their animals off of it, none of which include giving a snake a live rat to be strangled alive to fill the idea that the animal needs to do so for some gratification to an instinct or because it's more 'natural'. Giving them live puts your animals life in danger. If they don't like thawed, give them fresh dead and poke at it. But giving them live is just reckless in my opinion.

    I'm done with this and will not be responding to this thread again.
    Hold on a second there. I'm here to learn, just like everyone else. If you knew about something that tied feeding f/t food to constipation, I was hoping to learn from you as someone who feeds mostly f/t myself - nothing more, nothing less. If you're trying to read more into my post, I promise you I don't have nearly that many layers.
