- I guess it depends on how much and how often you choose to feed. I don’t like buying in increments of (50) for young snakes because they usually outgrow the prey size before you feed them all off and sometimes you end up with leftovers. A (50) pack of fuzzys for one BP that’s eating once a week will last a full year but they won’t be on fuzzys for a whole year so you may have to feed two at a time at some point. If you’re feeding your older animals small rats every 2 weeks then a pack of (20) small rats will cost you $44 on CBC, but doesn’t include the $30 for shipping. That one pack of rats will last about 10 months. If you don’t feed during shed times it’ll probably last a full year. If you’re feeding medium rats every 3 weeks then (20) medium rats will last more than a year for about $52.
If anyone has time, if you can i would like to see some of these snakes that are over 10yrs old....
And what happens to the thawed out food, if the snake does not take it? �� it can not be put back frozen? Or could it? Or will something like this get a snake sick?
- I don’t refreeze refused prey items because I have 11 snakes so no food goes to waste. I did it once or twice when I only had one snake, and never had any problems, but in hindsight I wouldn’t do it again.
