Beef heart is actually a very good basic food, but dietary supplements must be used with it. Also it would be ill advised to use it exclusively of other foods such as pinkies and fish. Basically, it's a good, cheap 'bulk' food, if you have a lot of snakes to feed. I have used it frequently in the past, when I had very large numbers of mouths to feed. I never had a problem. At the moment I'm not using it, but I'm thinking of introducing it quite soon.

It's a shame Rick isn't around to tell us how his snakes are fairing on their diet of caribou strips.
