I think it's ok to feed eggs to BTS. But I don't think you should be feeding hot dogs to snakes. Hot dogs don't have all the nutritional requirements met by say a mouse or rat, so you really shouldn't be feeding your snake something like that.......not sure on the toad thing.

it would make for a great hot dog commercial wouldn't it....:D

[sapphire_moon]

no, then everyone would want a snake because you could "just feed it hot dogs." :( But maybe a cute cartoon commercial.

i was being sarcastic.,...

Hot dogs have NO nutritional value to any species, including humans.

*LOL* sure would not reccomend this as a steady diet, but I've seen indigos eat tuna right out of the can, pieces of prepared hamburger patties, a piece of a goat leg before it went on the BBQ, saw a garter snake eat a grape etc. etc.

For ***** sakes, do not ever consider any of these items as even a supplement. Cute as a novelty, but nothing more.

Hey! I like hotdogs! What about snausages? Wheren't they made for dogs?

[sapphire_moon]

I know you were being sarcastic. :P lol

I feed my toads canned catfood in the winter because they don't like crickets (which is kind of odd....). It has actually made them grow quite quickly, as compared to the regular insects I feed them. But I wouldn't reccomend it because even if it seems like a healthy food now, I don't know how it would be in the long run.

Daver, true I love to take a bite out of a big juicy jumbo, letting the juices drip down my chin...............but I would never offer my juicy jumbo to any of my snakes.

Snausages are made for dogs... exactly! Dogs are omnivorous to an extent, snakes are not, they also have very different requirements. There isn't any product out there that can beat what nature has meant for these animals. Also, most commercial foods are loaded with fillers and preservatives, definitely something you want to avoid. LOL... as to the hot dog remark made by mykee, I couldn't agree more, hot dogs are not healthy foods for anyone :p

Dog/cat food also has higher d3 levels than herps require in their diet, which can prove harmful over time.

[scalawag]

I love Hot Dogs.

[CHRISANDBOIDS14]

Tasty! Not! LOL. Hes soooo cute! Haha. Great joke! This is a funny thread, i agree.

[Linds]

Scalawag,

[sapphire_moon]

mykee: I'm just going to keep my mouth shut on that one! lol

[snake_goth]

I give some tuna (canned with water not oil) to my female geckos right when they come out of cooling and when they lay eggs. I noted that most fat tails will go banana's over tuna while leopard geckos seem to hate the smell...

[Dozer]

I've seen pictures of taods eating cat food before. Its not fatal, but then again, not good at all either. I've also heard of people giving monitors sausages and other meats from the store. Once again, these are loaded with presservatives and other nasties.

Frogman, what toad do oyou have thats the largest in T.O.?
