I've been using them for a couple years now to add variety for some of my snakes. Sometimes harder hitting animals will create a mess and sometimes the ends aren't tied off well so one side will be unravelled after thawing. Some of my harder hitting/chewing stuff can equally rip a f/t rodent in half so I'm used to cleaning after feeding anyway, haha. All in all, I like them for what they are and will continue using. Nothing I keep gets them as a staple but I've always got a few packages in the freezer so I can mix things up. Success varies but far less than half of my snakes turn down links. I do tend to offer them stuff they'd naturally be interested in in the wild though. I'm not tossing rabbit links at garter snakes, etc.
