Turtle pelets as snake food?

[drache]

the snake looks healthy
I can't tell what it's eating though
those are turtle pellets?
don't they contain vegetable matter?
once in a while, it might not be harmful, but the problem with any kind of packaged convenience food is that it primarily appeals to people who are lazy, and then it becomes not a once in a while thing

i just looked up the Reptomin turtle pellets "contains meat and vegetable matter for balanced nutrition."

no....they are designed for turtles...snakes are strict carnivores....wouldn't feed it to them. I would say they don't know a lot about herps if they are feeding turtle pellets to snakes....doesn't the name give it away??? TURTLE pellets.....duh! great for turtles, my red ears do great on it, but would not give it to snakes!

So do fish, mice and worms.
