From what I understand most are snake eaters. I have a few snakes that will only eat frogs and lizards and that is a pain as well. Rodent pro doesn't sell them and even if they did it probably wouldn't do me much good since some of mine (vine snakes) are sight hunters. I'm trying to figure out if i should start a frog colony just to offset some of my costs. $6 for an anole is the cheapest i can find live non rodent feeders around here.



I order 1000-2000 feeders (mice/rats/chicks/GP) every 6 months. I go through 40-60 a week. Of course some of those go to the caiman and large lizards so it isn't just the snakes, but it still can get pricey.
