Question Dwarf Hamsters

Are dwarf hamster pinkies ok to feed to my corn? Or any other snake?
I've heard that their skulls are too hard. If anyone knows any info on this I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks
Shane

I've heard a lot of people say that hamsters are too fatty, but I have no personal experience. Also, I don't know if dwarf hamsters have the same fat content as regulars.

I feed my King snake with baby Dwarf Hamsters about every 3rd time, and other wise mice. Dwarf Hamsters do have lots of fat but it especially very good after the snake was hybernated, It helps the snake gain its fut faster. Also make sure not to feed them with any kind of hamsters for too lond time cause, snakes love them and its almost impossible to get them to eat mice after they have eaten Hamsters for a while. Hope this helps.
