Ermmmm..I dont recall calling names here..I dont have any issues with live feeding..only with those who do so cruelly & then boast of their actions as you have..you tube is full of people posting videos of cruelty, in the name of feeding their snakes..if you are aware of the potential of harm by live feeding, I see no reason to change from defrost, as stated, most try the opposite..your choice but I dont think its clever to mention the cruelty inflicted towards the prey in the name of protecting your precious snakes..I love my son but if he got into a fight I wouldnt dream of clubbing the other kid over the head to prevent my son from harm..I disagree with your post, my prerogative, thats what forums are for..to express opinions
