Re: Live vs. F/T question

My ball python kashmere is the most docile snake I have ever had and I only recently switched to f/t.

Re: Live vs. F/T question

Ok from what Ive read here, it seems feeding f/t doesnt necessarily calm the snakes' feeding response or agression. I agree with this as well. We only feed live and of our 14 snakes, the '09 macklots are the most agressive eaters as they will not let you toss the rat in the tub. They're always halfway out to get their meal and constricting it before you can get them back in. Coincidently enough they're the tamest of all the snakes we have.

The '10 macklots and the carpets on the other hand take their sweet time in feeding. You have to shut their tubs and leave them alone but eventually they get theirs. Fortunately they get no larger than pups so thats safe enough to do that.
