Chick Feeders

I bought some quail chicks to feed to some of my snakes for the variety. I notice that the little beaks poke holes all over the plastic package. I know that some snakes normally eat birds in the wild. But man, those beaks are sharp! Anyone think they could cause mechanical trauma to the digestive tract? I'm considering cutting the beaks off before feeding them.

I feed quail of all sizes, from one day old to full grown (~8 weeks) to a variety of my snakes and have never had a problem. I also feed baby chickens to some snakes and lizards, again without a problem.

I know of several people that just clip the sharp point of the beak with a pair of clippers. It seems to work well.
