I tried the thing you told me about putting cuts in the mice before I feed and it def made a huge difference. My little Creamsickle is digesting food so much better now then ever. I think I will use this method from now on with all the snakes that I feed f/t.

Connie Hurley, DVM, is the person who came up with the idea and tested it. I have been doing it and recommending it ever since. So easy and works so well!

I've got in the habit of doing that for all of my snakes, feeding problems or not. I'll either put a small slice or two in the rodent, or use a stick pin to poke a few holes in it.
