Of course you would, as would I. But that has nothing to do with feeder rodents being killed by snakes in a way thats occurred for thousands of years and is occuring now.

Mice being killed by hawks, owls, snakes, lizards, etc etc etc is as natural as it gets. To say death is better by our hands, Then by a snakes methods is a bit god like.

people can make that decision, but it has nothing to do with being right. At least for the rodent. ITs right only to ease the mind of some silly human, and only because that person does not have to do the killing. Its all about letting someone else do it and turn a blind eye. To me, a big part of these conversation is about having someone else do the dirty work, yet they still keep snakes in boxes and throw out the uneaten frozen thawed. The rodent is killed either way.

Also, eliminating the exercise a gets by killing rodents, is just another step to fat weak captive individuals. hahahahahahahahahaha I should have said that sooner.

The truth is, I could careless if folks feed live or not, its just weird this religious ferver that better by someone elses hands, then for the reptile to do what is natural. Its just another area control freaks can whine and take more rights away. In this case, its animal rights. Many individual snakes, perfer live over F/t, its their right as living carbon units to kill their prey, they are indeed predators. Individuals that perfer F/T, should be fed that.
