I can get up to a 5lb pig for a buck a pound. Over that is $1.50 a pound. of course there is a minimum order.

Re: switch to f/t
On the subject of feeding in cages i done it for years with know problems. I only have one snake (my Borneo) that for what ever reason will not eat in her cage. I have to put her in a different tote to get her to eat.
As of last Sunday i now only pay a $1.00 a rat. No matter the sizes. Ran into a old buddy we use to know when we first got into snake. He breeds snakes and rats now. So no more 60 mile around trip to pay $2.00 to $6.00 a rat. He lives down the road 7 miles. So me and my buddy Shawn are now saving on Gas and Rats. 
Plus we got to check out his set up. Very clean set up and really health rats. It's nice because now i know my snake are getting top quality rats. No more F/T now they all get freshly killed.

Re: switch to f/t
I seen Alice in concert back in the 80's in Peoria Il. It was the best dam show i ever seen. Can't remember the song, but he came out with one of the biggest RTB i ever seen. Like sickvenom said it was only out there for part of the song.

Sickvenom has been the AC tour photographer for many years, so if anyone would know how those snakes are treated, he certainly does.

Re: switch to f/t
We had a guy on the local Craigslist that was picking up any free animals under 15 pounds to feed his snakes. I do not condone that behavior, nor the fact that he was flaunting it. I hope an angry mob shows up at his house with torches and pitch forks. Just let me get his snakes out first.

Re: switch to f/t
May not be applicable to larger snakes, But a friend of mine lost one of his favourite snakes from one sliver of aspen puncturing her esophagus and the small poke wound got infected.
The vet found the aspen sliver stuck in the festered wound, the snake died from the infection. I sometimes wish I could afford a necropsy every time one of mine died.. but he's the kind of guy who just can't rest until he has the answer as to why it happened.

It just takes once and you're either looking at a big vet bill, a dead snake, or both!
