My neigbor found a nest of pinkys in his barn and wants to know if I can use them for my snakes. Is this safe? Will they have parasites or worms that can be passed on to the snakes? Just in case it matters I have 1 cali king, 1 desert king and 1 jungle carpet python.

If it were me I would freeze them for a few months first. Vac pack them will preserve them while you kill the parasites.

Haven't we warned you about tampering with the structure of a chaotic system?
