    From what I gather, full decapitation is the most humane way to kill a mouse... but that is obviously not practical for killing feeders.

    Cool Re: Do you ever feel bad feeding live?

    I could NEVER do YouTube - Reticulated Python striking a (LIVE FEEDER) rabbit.

    I think I would do live just to get the experience because it is the way of life and every snake should experience it at least once, you know? To live like a real snake not in captivity for once. Eventually I would switch to frozen.
