Not sure if anyone remembers but about 18 months ago I purchased a pack of Salmon from Wal Mart and fed a whole slew of snakes, within 12 hours of consuming the fish Snakes began convulsing and throwing up.

The death toll was about 25 percent.

The day before yesterday I fed a group of my snakes some Tilapia from Wal Mart. The very same thing happened all over again, snakes convulsed, puked and died very quickly.

The first time I blamed the Salmon, however many feed salmon with no problems, This time I refuse to blame the tilapia, instead I chose to blame Wal Mart (The common denominator in this sad equation)

Only upon closer inspection did I find that the Tilapia flesh is yellow (not white) and slimy.

This was not apparent while frozen, and since I ground it up with frozen pinkies before it thawed, the mix was blood red, so I never noticed the tilapia was in fact spoiled.

Myself, personally it will be a very cold day in HE double toothpicks before I ever feed my snakes anything from that store ever again.

Lost 4 snakes this time out, Including a trio that I had invested 2 years into.

I'm off to market for some fresh trout......
