why do you cut off the mealworm heads?

I was thinking the same thing if you're going to blend it all up anyway...

My favourite reptile food recipe is defrosted rat.

1. Go to freezer
2. Put rat in bucket
3. Pour hot water in bucket
4. Wait for rat to defrost
5. Feed to snake
 
For snakes my favourite is probably raost rat and mice

Ingredients
1 rat
3 mice


1
chop up frozen rat and mice into cubeish looking things
2
put into sauce-pan and cook till your happy with it
3
sprinkle a bit of mild spices and feed to snake when needed(freeze left over meat)
 
i usually grab a turtle outa the dam out back and cook slowly over coals
 
If you can get fertile quial eggs,
wouldn't u try and breed them so u have more fertile eggs for free?
 
Just as a note if your going to use that recipe for turtles.. I wouldn't think It'd be a good idea to add milk; its not natural in they're diet, and cant imagine it would be good for them.
 
Willia6 - I sugges you avoid milk - Turtles will have trouble digesting the fats (May result in stomich upset)
 
I don't want them other people do
I thinks it's so they can get quial babies and feed to snake?
no idea to be honest
 
lettuce is horrible, and arent reptiles lactos intollerant. so why the milk..

p.s. i like everyone elses spices and simpler options..

werent you asking just the other day about keeping turtles.. ???
 
Yes and i have done lots of research and found some things that are in there diet

Rolled Oats.

Instant oats add water so they are covered, Cook 6 mins in microwave, stir then do another 6 mins until thick.
Add one egg, a dash of milk na d a tablespoon of honey. Add grapes and other peices of fruit. It will keep in the freezer just dont add fruit if you decide to do it.

If you go to Asian specialty food shops you can buy tins of quail eggs in brine for $2. Just rinse them and the animals will love it. The turds afterwards are horrendous though.
