Obviously in other states they have the luxury of having rabbits available but what about us qld'ers? Are jumbo rats the biggest food you use. My carpet can scoff 2 jumbo rats already, I can't imagine how many an adult olive, scrubby or even a larger costal would eat in a sitting.
My snakes largely vary in size and I don't have many yet so a breeding colony is going a bit over board for now but if my coastal can smash $20 worth of rats a sitting then it would be nice to come up with some options before I'm feeding $50 to an olive every 10 days.
Whilst cats would be something they ate naturally I can't imagine having an easy time trying to feed them regularly, cats and rats seem to be thought of very differently. How about guinea pigs? Would they be a viable food option?
