Is it alright if I feed my snake squirrels that I have caught in the wild? I plan on freezing them first.

By feeding wild-caught prey to a captive snake, you are risking the exposure of a large array of parasites and bacteria to the snake, not all of which can be eliminated by freezing. Sure, you *could* do this, but the question is - with all the risk and the insignificant cost of feeding a single boa with captive-bred high quality feeder rodents, why would you want to?
