For the record, Swampy. I do not get live mice. I do not have it in me to be directly involved in that end of things.
There is a circle of life, Swampy, whether we like it or not. And to be honest, I would rather a mouse be in the belly of a snake versus running wild spreading diseases. Snakes are an important part of the ecosystem, just as spiders and bats are.
wow i thought they were small snakes! she looks like a goldie to me lol. years ago the ex and i had ball pythons. they were a "gift" from my bil. the ex fed them live mice, but i couldnt watch!
The Herp socieities now advocate against live because of the dangers so all involved. I would never be able to do live anyway. I even stopped the live crickets for Rascal as it was nasty having to get 1000 live crickets every few weeks.
