Different whole animals have different nutrient profiles all the way down to amino acid variation. Whole prey items will properly feed your croc(virtually any species) but their may be variations in the diet to ensure that subtle nutritional needs are met. Being a little rounded helps ensure a complete nutritional profile.




>>I'm just wondering what you mean by different species require different diets?
>>Are you saying whole prey items (be it rodent or aviary items) will not necessarily properly feed your crocodilian depending on what species it is?
