    I've never fed f/t or pre-killed to any of my ball pythons. I have over 40 of them, they all get live. I don't have the time, or the inclination to defrost feeders for all of them, and I seen no reason to pre-kill. They are swift and efficient hunters.

    There are stickies in the feeder forum (in fact, this thread is moving there, since it's really not about snakes but about feeders and how to dispatch them) about how to make an inexpensive CO2 chamber.
