I hope Alan will have time in the future to visit us, would be interesting to know his opinions

I've experimented with cat food and it works very good for some species. But buy some good cat foods, because some of them contain a lot of salt and rest products. And cat food contains a lot of proteïns, so I would't give them solely cat food. With young one's it's important to give them a lot of calcium with it, because otherwise they will grow to fast because of the proteïn shot. I was able to give it to young snakes also, of only a few months old.
I've tried and it worked with:
-cyrtopsis cyrtopsis
-marcianus marcianus
-sirtalis concinnus
Will in the future try some other species also
