corn snake and goldfish

[fire_fly]

i dont know if this is a really stupid idea or not but here goes...i have a lg enclosure for my anery corn so i have an upside down frizbee that i use for his water dish and i was wondering if i put a little fedder goldfish or 2 in there...would he eat them? would it harm him at all? just want to add a little variety to his diet, any suggestions? anyone?

don't won't to be rude here but did you read up any info on this animal? cornsnakes eat rodents mice normally i very much doubt! the snake would even consider fish as prey . but even if it did try to eat the fish i would be concerned . and would avoid this type of prey it could cause digestion problems at the very least .with a number of other problems along side this... please stick to food that books or internet sources tell you to use to avoid something to happen to your animal .. an upside down frizbee as a water bowl is not very secure either and you will get problems i bet when the snake is adult. not only that the bowl has to be deep enough for the animal to completly soak its entire body into .again i would avoid using fish as prey .good luck.

I definitly have to agree with Chris here. Keep the snake on rodents ;)

your corn will eat the small fish.iv'e had to put baby fish in a corns water dish to turn it onto feeding because when i brought it home it quite eating.it doesn't harm the snake i consulted an expert before i tried it.
