true. Now that you mention it I don't think I would go to that effort either. Maybe as a one off.

no havent done an dought i would to be honest as that means going out a buying fish plus something for them to live in so frozen/fresh is just easier

Fantastic. I saw a video during the week of a garter snake eating fish swimming in a wee bowl inside the viv. It was class to see a snake eat in a different way than in used to seeing. Thanks for sharing that.

cheer's, only gave her 5 incase she didnt eat them but will give her a few more next time as their only small.
just defrosted them in luke warm water then offered them to her

That's great footage. How many fish would you feed in one go? Do you have to warm them up like you would a rat?
