Hey all, I hope everyone had a good holiday weekend!


Until my bp decides that she'll take interest in f/t rats, I'll have to feed p/k. Last time I bashed the rat, I used the same method that I did with the mice; which entails hold them by the tail and just whipping them on a countertop. Very quick, very effective with the mice. When I tried it with the small rat...the first whack didn't do it all the way and I had to do it again. At that point, it's cruel IMO and I really didn't feel too good about it.

Is there another, faster way to do it that is easier on the feeder animal? I've seen people talk about the pillowcase method on here, but it seems like the same concept as the method I use. Help??!!
