Re: Is this a good idea?

At the moment I'm in a bit of a stuck situation. I can either wait until the mid sept expo or roll the dice my boa and king will eat chicks and order a 100 for $40 +35 shipping as 20 for 10 isn't worth it and it's too far to make driving worthwhile. My boa is on a weekly schedule until end of August when he moves to 14-21 days.

Re: Is this a good idea?

Can you only order in increments of 100 Blaze? Can you get 50 or is it time for another rodent feeder order too? $75 for 100 chicks is pretty steep. I don't keep boas but your king and your carpet should love the chicks. Your BP might dig them too.

It's $35 shipping regardless so to make it worthwhile it only makes sense to order more because 45 for 20 chicks just doesn't make sense. At the moment my carpet is to small to eat them. I'm sure my king will eat them, my BP I'm not sure. He has been a good eater for me.

Blaze- I gave my kings their first chicks when they were about 500g. I gave my carpets their first chicks when they were 250-300g.

I hope to get a wait this week. She is finally settling more she was still perched in the open even after the sun came up. That's a first since I've had her so going well. One more meal on Tuesday then 2 days to digest.
