a snake in the wild wouldn't be picky about it's next meal, it would just go and kill it, so why the hell do you need the mice to be just perfect before you cull them?

Unfortunately, we live in a society where killing animals is normal, i'm a big believer, that if it's humanely killed, then fine. but i don't agree on killing animals that are 'runts' or not deemed good enough.

There is also evidence that mice as well as other rodents get stressed or depressed when they loose their young, so when people kill pinkies for reptile food, how do you know that the mum isn't feeling the pain and grief.

Rodents in general are far more intelligent than people will realise.

Le Loup- i'm sorry, i know how hard this for you to read when your a vegan. I hope this topic hasn't upset you too much *hugs*
