    One difference though is that your snake is much younger & still growing. My gal is 15 1/2 years old now. Of course, real mice have legs too that Reptilinks don't, so they're a little harder to swallow.

    You've had real success with Reptilinks.
    We'll see how it goes. I don't anticipate any problems. I suspect he's as tolerant of feeder sizes as he is of everything else. I have read some articles that say that larger prey sizes spur growth, so I'll be watching for that.

    I'm pleased with Reptilinks as feeders. I don't know if he's heathier because of them. I haven't noticed any changes in his behavior or appearance. But, I do know they're more convenient for me. I don't have to hide them to keep from grossing out my wife and kids, and who knows? Maybe, Wiggles will live to be a hundred.
