Gerbils...pointing out the obvious

[Wizill]

I then proceeded to attempt to handle the gerbil and found out why it would be incredibly stupid for anyone to attempt to feed a live gerbil to their bp.

i appreciate your concern but don't tell people that what they do is 'incredibly' stupid'. i know a lot of people that feed live gerbils, me being one of them. if you've ever had a snake that wouldn't eat then you'd know how big of a relief it is to see it eat. and if a live gerbil is what it wants, and won't eat anything else, then i see no problems with it as long as it closely suprevised.
