over many years watching my assoicates doing it, for research...they are publicated to where I will have to find out possibly herpetofauna, but what I can say about thirty snake were involved python and elapids (manly carpets and tigers)and non are alive know (most at the age of between 4-6 years old) due to problems like fatty live and heart failure....what is the point of doing it anyway, apart from getting to breeding size so that they can breed or the look how big my snake is syndrome...you see alot of these power fed herp with really tiny heads and abnormal sized bodies it doesn't represent the true morphogy of that species. it was also found out that breeding decreases with fatty snake and sexual maturity wasn't gained greatly by power feeding
