Hey yall...
I've been feedin my 6ft JPC medium rats every Friday for a long time now...
I just call all of my friends to come over and we just make a bbq party out of it...
well.... last Friday the guys told me that rats are startin to get old and I should
try some new menue items for Jamie ( my JPC)
so here is my question...
would it be ok if I threw a baby chicken (chick) in there?
that would be cool and diferent.
It wouldnt hurt my snake at all would it?
I know of a couple of guys that feed their burms adult chickens...
this is just a smaller substatute...
whatcha think?
and dont worry about all of the stress that a group of people whatchin her eat would cause .
Jaimy dont mind at all because I make everyone stand a ways back and then I try to keep the whole endevor (hey look a big word....yes!)
educational.. My friends think Im smart...(Im not smart, I just repeat every thing that I learned from books and voalla ) they think Im a herp geniouse...... Whatever..
see I cant even spell... anyways.
what do you all think about me servin a few chicks to my Jaimy?
thanks.
Peace! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

I think you'll change your mind about feeding fowl to your snake after the first defecation.

Yeah, one chick induced runny, stinky poop will probably turn you away from feeding fowl.

Please excuse my ignorance....but what is a JPC? Did you mean JCP by chance? So anyway...how did keeping herps become a sporting event?

I guess his neighbors complained too much about the dog fights going on over there on weekends so he had to have quieter animals to abuse.
Barrin, there will come a time in your life that maturity will overcome your desire to seek entertainment from the death of animals. I hope anyway.

Sounds like you are feeding live and have a party for it to look cool.

Sounds like the coolness is wearing off...and your buddies may one day suggest that you scent a candy bar or a sucker for the show.
Has your JCP been bitten yet?
I'm willing to bet it probably has.
A live food item can kill your snake very easily. Sometimes in the initial bite, other times due to an infection occurring afterwards.
We have a care sheet on feeding live and why NOT to do it.
Check it out HERE.
there is also a section on the ways to feed safely.
Check it out HERE.
If you decide your snake isn't cool enough anymore, please let it go to a rescue group.
As for cool pets from here om out, I will suggest pet rocks.
They can be spray painted with any color scheme you want.
As for the feeding show with a pet rock, they really love the little smooth river gravel and readily eat it like popcorn.

Here's another thought. Have you ever held a baby chicken? They are nothing but fluff and gristle. Besides the fact that there isn't much nutritional value to a baby chick (a quail may be better, but...) baby chicks are really bad about carrying coccidia. If you are worried about runny poo casued by eating a chicken, just wait until your poor snake starts passing nasty stools caused by coccidiosis. In puppies and kittens, it causes a yellow, runny, foul (no pun intended or I would have said 'fowl' lol) stinknasty poo with blood and mucus in it.
You know what may be more 'fun' for you and your friends? Get a frozen/thawed rat, dangle it by its tail (preferably with tongs, but it's your hand, you choose) and dare them not to jump when the snake snatches the food. That way, your snake is safe from bites from his dinner, the rat doesn't die a slow frightening death, and you can even place bets with your friends as to who will jump and who won't. Just a thought [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

I agree with Giz. I am glad you are learning the hard lesson here. It would be a shame for your beautiful snake to die because a $2 rat refused to.
