I have a small ball and a sa redtail that is med in size. I have bought locally a ton of hissers. I have been feeding them to my monitors and beardies, but will snakes go for them? are they to cold blooded? I haven't tried it to much yet. The ball doesn't seem to interested, and the redtail is shedding....

Maybe if you prekill the roach, or try f/t roaches. That might work.

I have read in the past that neonate amazon tree boas have been found with insects in there gut in the wild. Interesting.
However, I doubt a ball python or a boa constrictor would look twice at a hissing cockroach. Stick to rodents.
