Is live feeding really that bad?

[Nixon]

Zincubus, there is a risk but it is very, very rare, as you can see by reading the posts. There are going to be instances where a snake gets injured by it's prey, even less common getting a permanent wound or a fatal blow. If you read these posts, you can still believe you think frozen is better - that is fine. Everyone has their opinion but you are laying yours down on us like if you feed your snake live the prey is going to pull out a M80 and start blowing your snake to smithereens. The least your snake is MOST LIKELY to get is a little bite/scratch that will heal in a matter of days or in the next shed. That's all there is to it. If you read the posts, leaving your snake unsupervised for too long or leaving the prey in the tank overnight can deliver some marks, possibly worse than just a cut. But if you watch over and if the snake doesn't eat you just take the animal out - you'll be fine.

Frozen is good is it has many advantages.
Live is also good and it has many advantages.

Both of them have their downsides.

Frozen may be contaminated if bought be an untrustworthy company or it was induced to death by medication, toxins, etc, or has fallen rotten.
Live may fight against your snake.

Both of these can EASILY be avoided.

Both ways are good, I'm not going against any. My question was: Is live really that bad? Because I've been seeing a lot of people saying like in your first post - it'll rip your snake's eyes out. But that isn't the case, which I suspected and all of these people have the proof for it.

There's no need to keep fighting about this.
