I will be honest for the sake of education. I experimented with wild mice. There are some buildings off my property where I get tons and tons of wild mice.... field mice. babies. fuzzies and adults. Feeding them live to snakes could give internal parasites.... also unlike domesticated mice, they realize snakes are bad and tend to attack them. They are fast. They are mean. They bite hard and can jump like crazy. What I do. I grab a few and put them in a separate raising tub in a different room for one week. They still look ok. They get one month frozen. Death by c02. Left in the c02 for awhile. Then fed. I have done this numerous times. No problems. Wanna get rid of a mouse problem. DECON. those green pellets will exterminate mice like no other. or Mousers (the little noise things) but that could drive your breeders nutso. I know this is not good practice. But I am just experimenting. I do no suggest anyone do this.
