i find your replies to be very interesting and informative. so no you are not rambling on.(lol) as far as the co2 chamber i actually have one and used it a few times, but most of my snakes were not interested in dead. i tried moving the prey around but with 10" tweesers and not hemostats which i intend to buy a 24" one. my promblem with feeding dead is that if i just leave the dead rat in i can not come back to check the next day to see if it ate it or not as my collection as not at my house and i feed and go back every few days so i cant leave a dead rat in there if its not eaten in 24hours. i would love to see the way you kill your rats? why not tape it and post it on youtube.com that would be great. until i move closer to where i keep my collection i have to probably feed only live. unless i try to feed prekilled and wait around an hour then just remove it if not eaten? what do you think about that? thanks again.
