f/t 90% of the time, but there was an occasion when several mice were let loose in my school as a prank. Over a period of a few months, i periodically fed f/k to my kings, who really seemed to enjoy the change.

I do not feed many F/T mice. I raise mice, so there would not be much reason to freeze them. I use P/K, or live.

i picked all three . my boas both get f/t rats , the 2 female ball pythons also get f/t rats . my male ball python for some reason wont take f/t yet but will put down f/k rats very readily . my scarlet kingsnake is only about 14 or 15 inches and i feed him live pinkies or small fuzzies . the only reason i dont feed him f/t is because i figure a pinkie or even a fuzzie cant really do much damage .

I feed both f/t mice and rats. I have been for the last 10 years. Frozen/thawed are easier for me to use, do not upset my spouse ( a very important consideration!!!!!) and, over the years, I have not noted a quanitative nor qualitative difference between the two.

I feed live. My guy is fairly new and won't take f/t yet.

Pinks and fuzzies I generally feed right off the mom. Anything bigger is fresh killed most of the time and frozen thawed the rest.

Do I get a question answered now?

Live here, its just cleaner and easier to feed live than f/t and p/k. I really dislike thawing mice/rats out.

All of my snakes eat live, except one and a half. with asus being the only one to take both f/t and live readilly. my male carpet will only take them p/k in his tank overnight.
