Re: Turtle pelets as snake food?

I saw this add too and i actually jsut came to thamnophis to post a thread about it! you beat me to it. I don't think this is a healthy food item for a garter snake. arent there vegetable components in those??? and they are hard... garters generally eat soft or wet things... plus i would worry about the pellets getting stuck in their throats! I don't think feeding turtle pellets to garters is healthy. I think it's just something that store is doing to appeal to customers and to sell their snakes. that article disgusts me.
