donīt understand me wrong guys ...I never said that this feeding thing was a problem at all.Just was currious if there were any other keepers who had this.
Th reason why I feed almost all my hots living prey is that they are way more capable in killing a mouse .. When feeding rats I usually will kill them and when still shocking throw them in. Th strenght of a mouse that gets pinned by any of my cobraīs is not enough to damage the snake. And also I have never seen a mouse live longer then a few seconds. Rats as I mentioned would have te power to damage so they are offered dead in most cases.

I know allot of keepers are pro pre killed and anti living prey but I have a other point of view but as long as my animals are healthy and 100% intact I will not change my mind.
