Hi all. I'm not posting this to hurt feelings or start any arguments on the subject. I know this is a sensitive subject to us snake lovers so please be respectful with your expressions. That being said.... many breeders upon finding a deformed baby in a litter will just put it in the freezer to put it down. Many feel that because boas are cold blooded they quickly become unconscious and die painlessly. Do you feel this is a good way to put down a sick boa and would it still be humane to put an adult boa down this way? Your thoughts...
