The other evening I was about to feed some of my larger snakes. I had thawed out a dozen adult mice.
I didn't have anything small thawed out but wanted to feed some mice to some of younger snakes.
I took a few of the adult mice and cut off the tails. I diced up the tails and offered them. They were taken readily.
It was a no mess way of introducing mice to young snakes.
Just thought I'd pass the idea along.
