How Frequently Do You Feed Your BPs?

[rabernet]

ur right each owner should decide what works best for them. But how would you know if feeding live isnt healthier i mean if u feed it frozen.. that thing has been frozen and then thawed its a whole process compared to feeding live which is fresh and more nutritious in my opinion.. and whats wrong with getting entertainment out of it i mean its ur snake u would like to think that its aggressive and could easily kill a mouse or rat.. to me i think its impressive.. my snake usually strikes at the rat the first second or two i toss it in there so it makes me feel good everytime it does

Can you point me to a study that says that live is healthier and more exciting for the snake than f/t? The fact that there are thousands of animals feed f/t that are thriving in collections around the world is proof enough that f/t is no less healthy than feeding live.

I am impressed with my snakes and the fact that they are perfectly designed to dispatch their prey - but if entertainment value is the reason to choose to feed live, the keeper might want to re-think their reason for having a snake.
