Say no more, lets just put it this way, that's a USA site, if its the
same one I saw, where they still dont have laws against live feeding. I
own s****s and dont believe in live feeding. I come from the UK. I also

course for s****s digestion, plus nutritionally its just not good for
them. So I stand buy what I said, most herpers would not feed GP's to
their s****s.
