i have seen the damage that has been done to quite a few boas and pythonss by owners who fed live but have yet to see any harmed by a dead rat! i have always fed p/k and f/t and only 3 times have i ever fer live and they were all pinky mice and rat because that was all they had at those times, and i have never had a problem with my tegus taking them. the safety of my pets alwayscome first and i couldnever chance an injury with any of them. i did once have a ball python ho would take live so i always stunned the mice by whacking them hard against something so they still moved but were comletely dazed.
