    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Alright I'm in need of help from Fauna Members once again (lol)

When should/can a Burm be taking off a rats? Is it easier to switch them to Rabbits/Pigs??
The animal in question is a 7.5 foot PLUS 16 pound Male about a big around as a baseball (probally a little bigger) He's currently eating 2-4 XXL stunned Live Rats a week

(For those who think the 2-4 a week is overfeeding thats your opinion I say 2-4 because one weel he might only eat 2 the next 3. 2-4 is a range n yes he has ate 4 XXL Rats in one week n one sitting I have never gone over 4 nor will I. As it is well known everyone has a diffrent feeding schedule/amount Mine works PERFERCT FOR ME except Im tired of giving him rats every week ( they add up when Your feeding 3 Burms 8 Balls & 4 Boa's But I cant complain I LOVE EM :thumbsup: ) and want to switch him over



As always any and all help is greatly appriciated
 
you can probably start him on bunnies pretty soon, i know the bunnies i sell are about 1-1.5lbs and should be no problem for that size burm. also you can try guinea pigs to lower the cost and chickens too
 
I honestly would rather not due chickens and Guinea pigs are mini hair balls unless anyone knows somewhere that sells short haired guinea pigs or Hairless 1's
 
A burm that big around can take rabbits or pigs in the 1-2 lb range. Don't feed every week with pigs tho. Every 10-14 days. I'd think every week would make him espload X_x(with pigs)
 
Yes I only feed him rats weekly per the fact that shave away the hair n there really not much left Im sure you guys know what Im trying to say because I know the way I type it dont make much sense LOL
