My wife names all of our feeder rats in our racks. She'll come home, "Where is "So & so"?". My response is usually limited because I have no clue who she is talking about. "One of the snakes probably ate it."
If you have your snake long enough you'll get used to keeping feeders as pets sometimes and not getting attached. Some will grow on you and you will love them and end up keeping them, though. Our oldest pet rat, Misty, was meant to be a feeder. Glad our ball refused her because she has been an amazing family member and breeder!
So as they have said, toss the little guy in your critter carrier, give it some food and water and wait til next week.![]()
