 Wild Mice!!!

Hi, i was just wondering if wild juvienile or pinkie mice are ok to feed to snakes once frozen???

The wild mice were actually born in captivity and havent been exsposed to any disease, or can they inherit disease from the wild adult?

(mother was a captive mouse which mated with a wild Male)

Yes they can be fed once frozen Make sure they are thawed out first.

I do believe they could inherit the disease. The captive mouse could have inherited it too, if the wild one even had a disease.

I wouldn’t risk feeding them to a snake though.
