Health Issues/Feeding ProblemsAnything related to general or specific health problems. Issues having to do with feeding problems or tips.
you are right if he is doing it wrong people need to see it so i can go back to f/t instead of feeding him live!
Honestly? Your snake is rubbish at strike feeding and totally inefficient at killing. Live mice aren't better than thawed mice for feeding in any way, they carry parasites that are killed by freezing that can infect your snake and when they are big enough to defend themselves they can inflict serious injuries. So why do you want to feed live mice rather than F/T?

I have noticed males to be bad feeders compared to females as well, Farm. Perhaps because females try to bulk up for reproducing?
quite possible.
I also find one of my males refuses most meals during the breeding season. my other male will eat whatever I give him, whenever I give it to him!!! But you can tell he's that way, he is 6 yrs old and well over 4' and well over 600g.

I'm totally calm. I've fed live when I've had to, despite screaming opposition on UK reptile forums and the general mistaken belief that it's totally illegal here. But it was to rehab non-feeders, which is why I'm asking why the OP wants to do it. I found it a pain in the backside, as you can't actually buy live feeder mice here, you have to grow your own
I have to get some more. My hard drive recently died and I had not backed up any of my pics to a removable device. So I have "redo" all my pics of all my beauties!! *sigh*
I will get you some pics of Pirwa (my big boy) ASAP!!
