I'm looking for some recipe's for tube feeding snakes. I have seen some in the past and can still find some but I'd like to see more that's worked for others. Every forum I've ever seen discussing this subject someone always suggests blending a rodent. It seems reasonable if you have never tried it but after trying it you'll realize there is entirely too much connective tissue and rodents don't blend well enough to be pressed through a syringe at an steady equal force. I also see plenty of recipe's with an ingrediant that nobody but themselves have heard of such as "creamed rhibophlabus"
