Guinea Pigs as food items...

for boas that is. Does anyone use them for their boas? Not sure if they're too fatty and better suited for pythons, or are they OK for boas?
Thanks!

Hi:

We've been feeding RodentPro xxxl guinea pigs to our adult redtails for a while. They're off food right now until they deliver, and we fed just large rats recently--- but the guinea pigs seemed to be just fine. The XXXXL (4X) seemed to be too big.

Thanks for the response. Stools were OK? How often did you feed them?
Thanks again.

It came from Happy Hillbilly's post on the burm forum, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind me lifting it and posting it over here (thanks, Mike!).
