    Couple Questions

    Hello, I have a couple questions about breeding mice for king snakes.
    1) What is the best way to euthanize pinkies?
    2) Would it be better to breed mice or ASF?
    3) How long do feeders last in the freezer if the are vacuum sealed?

    Any input would be greatly appreciated.


    -Thanks

    1. Freezer.
    2. Probably mice for king snakes. They're not picky, and mice breed like... well, mice.
    3. Up to one year, but I imagine longer depending on how well they're packaged and how cold your freezer is.

    about the same...mice grow much faster if you need the size.
