HOLY CRAP!!!!!!

I just saw the most disgusting thing I have EVER seen in my entire life!!!!!!! In my search for Vincent, I left a rat and hidebox on a heating pad near a hole under the cabinets in the laundry room last night because I thought maybe he'd gone under there. I just checked on it and was delighted to see that the rat had moved --- perhaps Vince tried to eat it but it was too big or something? I grabbed it's tail and pulled it out of the hole to find a rat carcass which had it's insides completely chewed out and there was blood ALL OVER the floor!!!! If mice did this to a dead rat, would they also try to eat a cold, lethargic baby python??? :cry:

ummmmmm i think ur bp would make short work of a mouse that came by and eat it
and ewwwwwwwwwww that must have been nasty!!!

I forgot that they were canabalistic
grose!!

EEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWW!!! lol... Thats why the only good mouse is the ones i get from the store and feed to my baby.. .well atleast try to so far.

Good luck, Vince is in my prayers that u find him before those mice do or somethin happens to him.

I personally don't think that she is going to let any mouse get closer enought without eating it. But still have you in my prayers to so you can find your baby soon without any other problem. :wink:

Well the wild mice should know that a snake is an enemy and a danger to them so they should stay away from him, or the may become supper.

I hope he eats them... I'm so grossed out, I mean I knew we had mice but I didn't know we had THIS many!! Every place I look in there's mouse crap... can't set out traps or poison or anything 'til Vince is found though. I think I have a new found fear of mice... this coming from a person who used to keep countless rats as pets! And thank you all so much for your support, it's been a crappy week and your words of encouragement have really been a tremendous spirit lifter.

Ok, ok that's crazy, my husband and I just had to make a Jumbo rat "bite sized" for our smaller monitors. (we only have jumbos at the moment). IT WAS SO NASTY.
I thought of taping it and sending it to fear factor..lol Where's my 50 grand..lol
That's so grouse.
I agree with Ironhead on the snake issue.
He'll turn up soon

I wouldnt put out poision unless you want alot of stink in the house. If you have that many mice there will be dead mice all over the place and in places you wont be able to find them, and the stench.....I learned this from experience. But mine werent just mice, there were rat's too. I lived right next to a grain mill and rat's and mice were an every day thing in my old house.

Slice and dice.....Huh rusty. Kinda like making chum for fishing.

eww when ever i have to disect a mouse or rat i just cut it into peices when its simi frozen
its still grose but not as bad. you should give it try it if you haven't its not near as messy

you can see sections of the mice

Yeah, It was accually thawed in for a burm, and we realized (after checking feeding records) that it wasn't time, so we didn't want to waste it. But I'll tell you this I'll waste it next time or re freeze it, but either way I'm not cutting it up again..lol
The nile of course just ate all the "yummy insides" and made a huge mess.
The whole situation was just wrong..lol, But she is fat and healthy.
Rusty

Yeah Ive gotten a few bad rats that have split open while being constricted... snake still eats them but it stinks like hell and makes a huuuuuuuge mess. They're so nasty!

eeeeeewwwwwww :x
I hope that doesn't happen to me any time soon!!

I nearly threw up...

that's nasty. i don't think the snake had anything to do with that, though. unless you have a super highly toxic venomous morph of a bp.


don't worry, you're going to find him. :) don't ever give up.
