+ no where near as much nutrients as mice and rats, mine grew very slowly when on quails, and exploded when it finally took mice
I feed my snakes quails as well. I just snap/break the chest bone, to make it easier for the snake to swallow.
and whats wrong with giving your rodents a pedicure before feeding them to your snakes mr beeman ?There is nothing wrong with feeding QUAIL they are perhaps slightly better
than rats of equivilant size as they dont carry the anywhere near the fat stores
of rats. A quail at 6 weeks weighs around 125 to 150gms so easily equivilant
to a medium rat. There is no need to clip wing, beaks and feet as the handle the whole bird with no trouble at all { next thing you will be clipping the toenails off the
rats and mice before you use them lol}
By the way it is QUAIL in the plural and the singular,
Who told you that!+ no where near as much nutrients as mice and rats, mine grew very slowly when on quails, and exploded when it finally took mice
Who told you that!
how long did you trial quail to prove that?
data?
Quail are high in protein and I feed Quail from 1day old-1week old -2week old-3week old-4week old to all my pythons -7yr bredli breeders , Jungle breeders and Jungles from about 6 months old to adult take them .
No need to trim at all,as the whole quail have good nutrients .
-USA studies on 'Game'- meat from various animals show protein and fat contents taken and under studies with scientific data,
digestion is good and I ALWAYS feed Quail -rats -mice to my pytohns and not just Quail alone, but some pythons take just quail at the first few feeds then later on rats are fed .
as we know there are very Fussy feeders - like Juvenile, Olives and hard to feed pythons take them with ease.
If you want Quail PM me for advice and costs as i sell QUAIL as well.
MY Breeders are all conditioned on Quail and i have experienced very good results
thats just my opinion on Quail .
any stats- them put them up?
Quails are good food for all reptiles.
I use them often, but I mix up there diet with, turkey, rats, mice, rabbits, guinea pigs & any unhappy customers....lol
The I thing find with quails are the chest bone they dont flex at all.
I even know some people that eat them.. Ill stick to chicken...lol
