I love rats and mice and had them for pets for years. I didn't think I'd be able to own them at the same time as snakes, but 6 months of handling frozen/thawed and I honestly think I'd be fine. At this point I no more associate a frozen/thawed rat with the living thing than I associate a package of ground beef with a cow. I recognize that they're the same animal, and the f/t have faces and all but. They're just meat.
Not sure if that makes me callous or not, but it is what it is.
and I think I'll probably get another pair of rats in the next few months.
