: Feeding your snakes "processed meats" will do it no good. You probably have noticed that it regurgitates the hot dogs and bologna.
I'll try to take a pic. By no means is a hotdog its main diet. I just find it interesting that the animal will take alternative food. It hasn't regurgitated ever. It is getting fat and healthy. If he didn't want it, he wouldn't eat it. He's not underfed, that's the truth. I have a slight background in biology and just as other reptiles will take "crap" food, ie, monitors, etc, it won't hurt it as an occasional inexpensive treat. The snake's main fair is mice, eggs and chicken gizzards. I'll take your advice and not over do it with the processed meats.
All the Best,
