As you stated, Vic. Moderation is the key. I am a big proponent off rotating food items with my drys.

The problem is that some people get lazy and stick with one food type.

About two years ago I passed on a young male eastern indigo because the owner had never weaned it off of silversides.

One trick that has never failed me is to wrap a thawed rodent or quail chick in a whole trout overnight in the fridge. The "marinated" rodent has never been refused.

I've also had good luck scenting rodents with beaten egg.
