Posted by: FRAN at Thu Nov 11 13:08:48 2004 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by FRAN ] Actually fish seem to make up a major part of their diet in the wild. I've witnessed them numerous times in southeast asia hanging low from trees over creeks and stabbing at fish and eating them right in front of me. The locals told me the snakes were always present over the creeks eating in this manner. The snakes were so confident with their blending in with the branches and leaves that they did not move even if you walked right up to them. If you merely touched them, then they would take off. Perhaps in other parts they prefer a frog and lizard diet but the ones I saw were in Indonesia and were big 4 foot snakes and the ones we receive as imports a think come from Malaysia and are a bit smaller it seems. Also saw a flying snake mixed in with them but that sucker took off like a bird. I have several hundred snakes, many of which feed on anoles and I never did a fecal on any of them but never had much of a problem. But if you feed those store bought anoles your taking a risk. I say keep your money and keep a good eye on your snake. Pancur cannot be overdosed but flagyl can and unless it is sick it is not worth the money or the risk. But if it gives you peace of mind then more power to you. | ||
