Gotta be careful about wild caught lizards. They can have parasites that can be transmitted to your snake. Otherwise, pretty cool lol. Corns LOVE lizards.

Yeah, he gobbled it down really fast.

If I freeze the lizards in advance for a few days doesn't that kill off parasites? I read that online.

Yes freezing can kill off most parasites though I would do a minimum of 4 days, and make sure your.freezer is at its coldest setting
