its really not as bad or cruel as it sounds, i swore to myslef i would NEVER get a snake that ate mice becuase i knew i was either goin to have to order frozen mice or kill them myslef and niether of those things sounded very fun to me, but after the first few mice it gets ALOT easier and i dont feel like im goin to go to hell becuase of it ;)
Ohh, and i dont whack thier heads against the table, i dont even touch the mouse i put it in a bag and whack the whole body.Works better and less chance of being bitten.
