As I await the hatching of my first clutch, I find myself faced with the unpleasant possibility of birth defects. You never know, right. My fiancee and I just started culling our rats with a newly designed CO2 chamber and it really is so much more quick and humane then freezing them. I just wonder, in case the worst should happen, would the CO2 chamber be an effective way to cull any deformed hatchlings? Would it be as quick for them? I'm sure if the situations arises I will be absolutely devastated, but I would rather be prepared to deal with it in the most painless way possible.
would this work? Any thoughts on having to cull problem hatchlings?
