Posted by: Highlander1 at Wed Jun 18 23:06:23 2003 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by Highlander1 ] Stun the prey instead of killing it.Take a blunt object (screwdriver,small hammer,etc.) and hold the appropriately sized rat up by the tail and smack the base of the skull.This doesnt kill them instantly so they will wriggle alot like live and stubborn feeders will usually take this when they are used to feeding live.Thats how i got a stubborn feeder of mine started on p/k rats instead of live.Feed live ONLY as a last resort not before.Its way to dangerous for the snake.With stunned they are still basically alive but after about 10 seconds of being constricted its over and done so its alot less dangerous to me and the snake than feeding live.After 2-3 feedings with stunned then try p/k and see what happens.
