If i have rats left over from a feeding they go back in the rat racks. I have 12 breeder rat racks and 6 holding racks so with that amount of production i do tend to have surplus from time to time but i usually dont have to freeze cause i sell em to other breeders but if ya have to freeze theres nothin wrong with whackin em and baggin em
there are reconised ways of humanely euthanizing rats,,,, and puting them in a bag and "wacking "them is not one of them.
you can also hold them under water,,, throw them at the wall,, or sit on them.... the OP wants to do it the right way... not a barbaric " put em in a tater sack and thump em" kinda way..
