Ok there not a collectors item, but whats wrong with trying to provide the best life you can for them? and how do you know they want live? you ask them or are you assuming personally when my snakes take a FT rat I dont think they really care or wish it was live (yes, i assume )

whats your point? sale value is a huge part of the game. and still would rather these scars were not there in the first place if I could have avoided it.
