Oh? *checks calendar* Is it time already for the quarterly live vs frozen thawed flame war?

Frozen thawed are the best food source for snakes if they will take them. Live rodents can be quite dangerous if a few variables line themselves up right. When dealing with Ball Pythons this can be especially dangerous given their habits of being lackadaisical feeders.

If you have a wildcaught animal that only takes live, fine. But ball pythons and most other captive bred snakes are just short of being domesticated and should have no problems accepting FT.

In before someone throws out this arguement. No there is absolutely nothing morally worse or better with either type of feeding.
