I warn you, this post is not for the weak stomached.

















My Ball only eats live, so I do what I usually do and I get some feeders for him. I went to the pet store, and ran a few errands before coming home. I left them in the car as I didn't want to take them to the store with me. So I get home, and grab the first one with the tongs and notice that the other one hasn't moved an inch. I feed the Ball then go to inspect the other mouse. It's completely dead, it's face is bloody, and its eyes have been eaten out by the bigger mouse. What I don't understand is how on earth did it die (how would a mouse kill another mouse)? I know it was alive, I saw it being put into the box alive. Are mice this aggressive? Why eat the eyes? And still, how did it die?! They were only alone in there for an hour.

I know this sounds silly to ask, but I'm really curious and this is a completely new thing to me. *shrugs*
