That's the way I do it...

once you get bit youll start using tongs

[mpkeelee]

i have had de-gloving happen as well as their tails fallin off and once belly opened up and spilled guts into the sink full of water. and when i get the rats who were euthanized via cervical dislocation i have had a few heads just fall off. i havent had any problems when i started ordering from RodentPro. so im thinking it had to do with the source of the rats i had in El Paso
