Feeding Rabbit¿?

[feindish]

would it be alright to feed my 3.5 foot corn pinkie rabbits?

This is just my opinion, but since you asked, no.

Adult and semi-adult snakes need the fully formed bones of adult mice for a source of calcium. Pinkie rabbits just are not going to be able to provide this and will be high in fat. Another consideration is that you might have a hard time finding a regular supply of rabbit pinks when your corn has developed a taste for rabbit and will not take other rodent prey.....

Yup, I agree with Starwarsdad. Pinkie anything will have insufficient calcium, protein etc compared with an adult prey item. Just out of interest, why were you considering rabbits anyway? They are much more expensive than mice.

so would it not be a good idea to try one first they would be easier to breed and couldnt u get calcium suplements

If it's a question of easier breeding then I'd still go for mice. Rabbits don't have as big litter sizes, are more expensive to keep, more space consuming... Mice are better for you snake than pinkie rabbits for all the reasons stated before.
