RE: Caring for Feeders: A Less Glamorous Responsibility of a Zookeeper

in #science7 years ago

I have never thought about the usage of crickets and cockroaches as food. Interesting! I learned something today :)

PS: I love the snake story, with the 'no frozen food for me today' thing :)

Sort:  

They are odd animals haha. Sometimes it's a seasonal thing, especially among those born in the wild. They just kinda stop eating for like 3-5 months. But then there are times where the just stop eating for no apparent reason. One of our kingsnakes will stop eating and only resume once you use a mouse of a different color!

Actually, after thinking a little bit, it works the same with human babies :p
