I'd read or something some time ago that you're supposed to feed them dead animals since a living one in a contained environment with a predator would provoke the prey to fight back and risk injuries to your pet. I'd also heard that dunking them in stuff like chicken broth makes it better tasting for the snakes as well. I've never owned a snake so don't hold me to any of this.

The snake looks bad ass too, by the way.

On a side note, I used to have a chameleon, but he died a few years ago. I've probably got some pictures of him somewhere, but I doubt they'll surface before this thread dies.
