Just curious if anyone knew of any risks associated with the feeding of fathead minnows to neonate snakes (i.e., Candoia). My baby Isabels eat them readily, but I've heard rumors that commercial fatheads can spread diseases like hepatitis. Anyone have any knowledge of this? And if so, are these diseases transmittable to the snakes, or worse yet humans?
