    Just go easy on the garlic butter too (kidding)
    I can't think of a time I would ever have any extra lobster left to feed the snakes with

    Re: Cooked lobster?

    Like I've said 100000 times I'm no expert on snakes, but the only thing I could see that might matter, is that it's cooked, rather than raw food that they're used to eating. Cooking starts to break down the proteins and what not. But I'm sure as a little treat it mght not hurt

    (Like we don't give our dogs/cats little scraps of human food, which isn't made for them, and is cooked...)

    The rapid evolution of the human brain can in all probability be contributed to the invention of cooked food. We got more energy out of cooked food, than raw. One study, incidentally involving snakes, also confirms that cooking makes food significantly easier to digest.

    Well my friend being the bargain shopper he is was at a wholesale foods market n bought 10 live lobsters... got them home n realized he had no way to 'keep' them unless he cooked them... So one after one he dropped them in a pot n he said the screaming was crazy. I'll try giving them some... see who likes it.. my scorpions might even want some... we will see.


    Oh and we just ate a bunch of lobster (between 5 people) and there is still leftovers lol hmmm it was so good. I don't often have sea food, Cole don't like it.
