Re: Small birds??
I'm not worried about icky cages, its a big cage that is getting a cleaning this week hehe *putting in some carpeting along the bottom to keep moisture off the wood. No parasite problems thus far and they are both healthy !

Re: Small birds??
nope
I thought about feeding mine shrimp but then I said no. I realized it would be hard for the snakes to digest the exoskeletons. I have however heard of a lot of pet stores that feed their snakes crickets!

feeding guppies
the pet stores I know around here often feed the garters with guppies in bad condition. They may look great with their big tails as long as alife in the tank but there´s no substance for a hungry stomach.
Is it really cheaper to let a snake pass away than feeding sufficiently? |

salt levels in saltwater fish are no different from those in freshwater fish they process the water differently in order to maintain normal salinity levels they also use some process to keep the salt in the water from sucking the moisture out of their bodies, which is necessary because their salinity is lower than that of the water
