If so, I'm just curious to give it a try as an alternative to feeding mice/rats. I read in the latest Reptile Mag, that its basically ground up rodents within a sausage or sausagelike tube. I'm not sure if they add anything else such as calcium or vitamins within it. Yes sounds weird, but hey, its different and better looking than a frozen thawed rodent. LoL. I do breed for the most part my own rodents, but am willing to try it and see if my snakes accept it. Maybe the "snake sausage" is better if it has extras inside? Has anyone else besides me read about this? If so, do you know where to purchase it?

I think there was some discussion on the cornsnake board a year or so ago and the consensus was they were expensive and not necessarily as good as whole prey. That and you kinda gotta teach your snakes to accept them.

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

Plus the "casing" of the "sausage" is REALLY hard to digest. So it will be basicly sitting there in the stomache rotting
