feeding baby chicks

have scored fifty day old chickens...am planning to feed them to my water python to mix up its diet over the next few months, but am interested if people would recommend doing the same for jungles, diamonds and bredli?

No real problems with it although when they pass the chickens they make a mess....and it smells....bad. We feed them to our coastal carpets, jungle and some of the elapids and they've been on them for about 2 years now. Also a mate feeds them to his Olives, Bredli, BHP's, Murray Darlings and Childreni.

Yeah I feed chicks to Bredli, Womas, BHP's and anything else that will eat them. I only feed them every now and then as a bit of a change from rats.

I have a Spotted Python that prefers chicks over everything else.

And I agree with Kersten, it stinks when it comes out the other end.
