So I'm going to catch this Hog up with my normal snake feeding schedule and if he doesn't eat I was planning on braining the pinkie. I heard this is very effective, and it really does help a snake eat. And it won't gross me out one bit, actually, I may find this new technique (well, new to me) interesting. Things like this wouldn't gross me out, I will rarely ever be grossed out and only one thing does gross me out (well, that I know of) and that's watching someone/seeing puke so the braining will hardly make me grossed out. I don't think I have any razors (which most people brain pinks with) so maybe just a regular knife would work (not a butter knife, or a plastic knife lol..)?
