    A thing I learned.

    A friend of mine who breeds corns has given me a new way to help your snakes get more of its meal and digest faster!

    Im sure many know of it...but im going to tell eveyone of it anyway.

    When you go to feed your snake cut the rat/mouse open. The stomache juices get into the body faster and digests it alot faster. And it gets more of the rat...Im not sure how but hte snake growes faster. I have noticed it. I will feed the snake a non-cut mouse one week then the next i will feed it a cut mouse and the cut mouse really digests faster and the snake growes a considerable amountover a few weeks time if it is on cut mice over non cut. Even though it digests faster I would still wait your 2-3 day periosd before handling. Anyone thast can back me up? I think I covered it.

    From what I've read, that's a myth...seems really pointless, unnecessary and messy...

    I agree with sho ... myth ... besides, what's wrong with how they grow normally? ... let the snake be a snake ... there are no shortcuts!

    It takes way more than two weeks with one animal to prove anything. Someone would have to do a study with multiple groups of snakes over a long period of time.
