i sprinkle some rosemary on mine... really brings out the flavour;)
 
dont use rosemary silly, use paprika. i find they like the spice.
especially if you lightly pan fry the rat first.
mice are a totally different ball game.

sounds like a ridiculously expensive way of feeding to me.
 
It should last quite a few feeds and puts nearly everthing in there diet in (i think)

Cheers,

Take one (or up to 120) fertile quail egg(s).
Cook at 37C for 17 days.
Once the egg cracks and a little fuzzy thing starts going "peep", feed to snakes.
 
there are a few places you can buy fertile quail eggs but keep in mind that posting can lower the hatch rate.
 
why do you cut off the mealworm heads?
 
Does anyone?
anyone?

You can get them at the Victoria Market in Melbourne.

I make up a mix that I freeze for my turtles and blue tongues.

(measurements are not exact)

half a litre of Speckled Feeder Roaches
1kg of Roo mince
250g of frozen spinach
Frozen Marinara mix
shrimp skins (from a chinese grocer)
white bait (sometimes)
Rep-Cal Calcium
Rep-Cal Herp-t-vite
gelatin
boiling water

Blend it all together into a slurry and set in flat takeaway food containers. When it is set I cut it into cubes and freeze until required. The key ingredient is the calcium and the gelatin ensures that it stays with the other stuff. The animals all like it and thrive on it.
 
You can make a tasty dish for your BHPs out of coastal carpets!
