Hey Paul,

I tried the sausages with my female indigo and she devoured them. To my surprise her feeding response to the sausages was much stronger than her feeding response to rats (her normal diet). My male indigo is in blue so I haven't tried giving him any sausages yet.

I had a little problem with some of the stuffing oozing out, but hopefully I'll have that worked out by the next batch. Tying the ends of each link is a bit tricky and labor intensive, but definitely a step that should not be rushed.

I took some of the stuffing that oozed out, made it into a small ball and give it to my female false water cobra and she also ate it right up.

So far, it's an overall success with some minor issues to iron out.
