    Re: Feeder Fish without Thiaminase?

    Just tossing this out there, but since we're talking about raising food, nightcrawlers are by far the easiest and cheapest food to raise yourself. Plus you don't have any of the potential health concerns that come with fish.

    Isn't it true that earthworms are lacking in some important nutrients, especially calcium. For baby snakes with growing bones I would imagine they need a good amount of this nutrient.

    This can depend on what they were fed or the soil they came from. Many people dip the worm tail in a calcium supplement before feeding.
