pre-killed food

What is the fastest/most effective way to do this yourself? I do not have access to good f/t mice, the pet stores are terrible. I didn't mind feeding live, but one time the mouse scratched my BP so I haven't wanted to feed live since. I don't have a problem doing what I need to do, but at the same time want it to be as quick and humane as possible. Help?

nevermind, i found it.

WHere did you find it? Is it in this forum somewhere or did you get it somewhere else? I am curious as to how it's done.

The diy section has a sticky on it.

That is what I use. It would be better if you have more but you can euthanize more at a time (more cost effective).

I breed my own so I can kill off whole tubs, so it cost less per unit to kill them.

I also breed my own, but i just skip the whole humane method. Never really bothers me, unfourtuantely i like my snakes more than my rats.

I don't understand what your trying to say?

You pre kill but you skip the "humane" method?

there are plenty of physical means that are approved and considered "humane", head trauma and cervical dislocation among the most common.
