Before they are dinner

Lol, that is cool. My niece and nephew still get a little sad come feeding day, but they love to watch the snakes eat.

Mine is great for petting the "tubs of cuteness" as she calls them but come feeding day... :D

She will definately be an advocate for the hobby! She is the one that talked me into snakes. When she was about 6, lol. I will have her call your wife later.........:D

That's hilarious, but awesome at the same time. Definitely should be proud of her, I hope she keeps up the hobby :)

Never underestimate the importance of giving your snakes a well socialized feeder.

Rumor has it that well socialized rats taste better :D

Kudos to your daughter for making those rats feel more at ease as they transit the Green Mile...

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

My 4 y/o son and daughter who's 3, are exactly like that. They name them play with them, then off to feed the snakes!:) I did get a little resistence when one of the rats first had a litter. The kids watched the whole process from birth to weaned, so there was a little more attachment, but they are very smart and understand the whole circle of life idea. I feel it's very beneficial for my kids to learn about, understand, and appreciate nature. My son ecspecially will lead the next generation of herpers into the future!:D:gj:
