You eat meat?

"There has been criticism of the methods of preparation, herding, and killing within slaughterhouses, and in particular of the speed with which the slaughter is conducted. Investigations by animal welfare and animal rights groups have indicated that a proportion of animals are being skinned or gutted while alive and apparently conscious. There has also been criticism of the methods of transport of the animals, who are driven for hundreds of miles to slaughterhouses in conditions that often result in crush injuries and death en route." (this is from wikipedia, not the best source I know but it does happen)

I'm not saying it's okay!!! It's very BAD!!!

I'm very very against animal cruelty.. I hate to see any animal suffer. I breed my own feeders and become very attached to my breeders so I try to minimize the pain when I p/k.

I just wanted to point out that people are using the 'snakes got to eat' excuse which is valid. They do have to eat. And so do people. The only reason we have problems with it is because we are here to witness it. I still eat meat, even after watching horrid peta videos about slaughter houses.

Ergo I don't have a problem with my snakes eating meat I've killed myself. This way I know how it died. And i know how it lived, all my feeders get the best of care and sometimes love/handling, while growing up.

Just my two cents, but it has been said 2cents isn't worth much. *shrug*

I hope I haven't steped over any lines here.
