RE: Feeding guinea pigs???

Past experience has shown me that getting a python to eat a guinea pig is not as easy as getting them to eat a rat or mouse.I was always of the belief that guinea pigs are not as good a food source as rodents or fowl and are generally harder to digest.Guinea pigs are bigger,smell 100 times worse and have smaller litters than rats and mice do,they are also not as easy to care for.Rodents and fowl are a common food source I believe because they are more readily available,cheaper,and a known food for snakes ect,I dont think there are guinea pigs in the wild so id have to asume that they are not a prefered diet either!!!
Only my opion!!
