I used to convert my Easterm Hogs to mice, but every one of them died b/c of it.

hi.

i honestly don't have a solid opinion on this issue, but i was wondering why you think that mice killed your hogs? do you have documented proof? what was the cause of death for these animals?

i ask, because no one else has offered evidence that mice are actually too fatty, just conjecture. hard evidence would be VERY helpful to your arguement. some people have kept easterns for years without problems, others claim mice to be the root of all evil. neither side has any serious evidence, except that some snakes die, and some dont.

no one has come forward with any necropsy information that would lead me to believe that too much fat caused their snake's death. submit some solid information, and we might be able to clean this up.
