Anyone ever seen this? Strange

[BIGT FROM F.B.]

I've never seen a snake eating a hotdog before. Saw this guy for sale on Craigslist tonight.

That's a first for me too brother. Who woulda thunk it?

Wow, same here.

I imagine that if was scented with a pinkie, you could get a hungry snake to eat it fairly easily. That said, I'm not sure that the nitrates and nitrites along with all the other "stuff" in a hot dog would not be very good for the health of the snake.

[BIGT FROM F.B.]

Yeah Jim, but I believe that the "stuff" in hotdogs is the only thing you have to worry about. By that time, Nitrates and Nitrites aren't even a concern. LOL!!!!

Wasn't there some kind of "snake weiner" food thing sold by T-Rex products a few years back? I seem to remember something like that....


Oh...and yes. Very weird.

[BIGT FROM F.B.]

I didn't think about the scenting with a pinkie. Good point.

Yes there was, but it never caught on. I've had a Hognose eat a hard boiled egg and some of my snakes have eaten chicken legs and stripes of chicken breast.

[Bloutitt]

I have a stong feeling this snake is very ill.

[CrotalusR#1]

Some of my rattlesnakes will eat store bought chicken breast.

Wow....feeding a hotdog just seems so wrong in so many ways haha too weird.

Now there's something you don't see every day :shocked:

I have seen this before, it might indeed be one of those 'snake' hotdogs.. Who knows, weird thing to feed to a snake anyway. I would be worried about conservatives and added sugars and who knows what cr*p is in those things, i don't even eat them myself. Some snakes aren't that picky though, i have heard of some of them eating weird things like pig feet, chicken necks, hearts, filets, beef strips, eggs. Strangest things i've fed my snakes for me, was a fish to a retic. (Was amazed it actually ate it, even seemed to like it, that poop though :hmm:)

[Georgia]

Very strange...cottonmouths eat damn near anything *shrugs*. Ive had them eat drum stick and chicken wings.

[Tsubaki]

For some reason thinking about a snake eating a chicken wing, just makes me laugh.. Sounds so silly.

Yeah, what a about a breaded boneless chicken wing? :p

[Tsubaki]

Oh that doesn't sound any better no xD

That's not a sale, that's a rescue. Why would anyone feed a snake a hot dog? I don't even eat those myself...

[Derek Roddy]

I have a few BHPs that will eat hotdogs, sandwich meat, etc....


Now this is odd.

now that is something. next obvious question, did he eat it?!?!?

[BIGT FROM F.B.]

Oh, I didn't post the picture of them feeding it another snake. Knew that would cause an uprise.

[SSSSnakes]

Why should it cause a up rise? Snakes do eat snakes as part of their natural diet. Just because we like snakes doesn't mean we can deny their need for a certain food source. King Cobras, for the most part, will only eat snakes.

I remember seeing snake sausages a while back. Didn't look like that. Didn't try any either, f/t mice are already snake sausages.

Hotdogs are usually lacking in Calcium, Vitamin D... wonder if MBD would be an issue with a diet like that.

Yes, it did actually. It was on an Australian site a few years ago. There were several sequence shots of it going down but, can't seem to find the others. I must not have saved them all.

Don't know why someone thought it would be a good idea to feed broccoli. haha.

In my case, my animals got ahold of my sandwich and hotdog by mistake. Don't ask. LoL.

[virtuousvixen]

i'm surprised it's going down in one piece. Knowing how mine eat i think it would be in pieces by the end....But why would you feed a hot dog to a snake?
