I know this topic is in the tegu forum but I would like to chime in. I feed both live and f/t. I have some snakes that will not take f/t. I keep mostly ball pythons and some of them have been very difficult to keep feeding on a regular basis. These picky feeders recieve only live prey items. I supervise the feeding and in the case of a rat turning the table I am there to take action. I do wish I could get these guys to take f/t prey because the potential for injury is real. But I do not feel bad or feel like I am doing anything wrong by offering live prey. Some of my snakes will take f/t prey and I prefer this method because of availability cost and convienace.
