Feeding Live, yes or no.
I feed mostly frozen thawed, but sometimes feed live.
Its just a natural way to feed with me but I have been taking heat for showing live feedings.
Would like to here some others thoughts on live feeding.  |

Re: Feeding Live, yes or no.
If thats the only way the animal will eat then what can ya do but if you can it's safer to feed P/K or T/H.
By the way you have an amazing collection of fogs man  |

Re: Feeding Live, yes or no.

Re: Feeding Live, yes or no.
If you can feed p/k or f/t then I think you should.

Re: Feeding Live, yes or no.
I have much smaller tiny frogs and I feed them fruit flies. Yes, the fruit flies are alive when I feed them.

Re: Feeding Live, yes or no.
I stun the rodent first whenever I feed live, my worst fear would be a rodent harming one of my pets, thats why I watch the feeding closely. I have some c.cornutas that would certainly die if they were not fed live rodents or frogs.

LOL just think they flys could bite your frogs and seriously annoy them. Can't you get pre killed or frozen flys?
