OP, I think what Deborah said is very important. Either can work, it's a matter of what works for you and the snake and being PROPERLY EDUCATED.
I personally feed F/T to all my snakes, but have fed live in the past.
For me, if the snakes eat the F/T prey it makes the most sense for the following reasons:
- Frozen prey can't fight back = safe for the snake
- I can buy bulk and store months worth of prey in my freezer = cheap and easy
- If prey isn't eaten and there isn't another snake to feed it to you're not stuck housing a live mouse/rat.
Bottom line: do what's best for you and your animal. Just take the time and care to do it right.
