How Do You Pre-Kill Rodents?

I just wanted to know how some of you pre-kill your rodents. I'm kinda interested in knowing so since I will be breeding rats soon and stuff:)

I leave it to the snake. I only have one snake who is picky and eats live. Other than that it's all f/t. But my breeder kills by co2.

I chase them down with my car, it seems more natural that way.

I usually feed live or f/t (easier), but if I have a scaredy snake, sometimes I'll CO2 'um in a DIY chamber (incredibly easy to make one of these, BTW).

put a pencil behind the neck push down and pull tail back :gj:

When I fed pre-killed, I euthanized with a C02 chamber.

LMAO...I feed live (easier) and F/T but since my rat colony is picking up i'm going to build one of those DIY CO2 chambers.

The CO2 chamber is the way to go. When you have to snuff out a bunch at once you need a clean easy way to do it. The CO2 does that.

When I fed pre killed, I had the guys at the store kill them. They did it just by slamming them against a hard surface. I don't go there anymore though. The people I get my feeders from have a CO2 chamber though.

Well I definately dont shoot them, would not be a whole lot left after I got done with my .357 Mag!!:rofl::rofl:

Actually I just buy f/t from a local store
