In that case the best compromise would be to breed your own rodents and prekill just before feeding ...
In an ideal world ...
I'd do it only no space ...
Meanwhile the little gits are getting pretty huge on f/t. |

Theoretically that is correct. The largest proof can be seen when snakes are fed on f/t and live, when both are the same size the snakes on live are always bigger than the ones fed on f/t.
Can't remember who it was that did the "proof" but it was done over about two years and the differences were surprising. |

I wouldn't think so, the nutrients are locked into the flesh, muscle, and bone and thats still there when its eaten. If there is any loss it is from decomp but been frozen after death would stop that breakdown. |
