Someone seems to forget to mention all the snakes that die from f/t too.
They can be a problem for keepers that don't know how to thaw out properly.
A snake can get injured from eating a rat that is partially still frozen too.
Don't forget the waste of a life.
You thaw a rat, none of your snakes eat it so what do you do?
Some will refreeze to offer another day but many will just throw it out.
I would refreeze but that's a whole different debate on the growth of bacteria.
Now you have wasted a rat that you have no clue what it went through to die.
A live goes back in the rack to live another week.
I am not faulting frozen or live feeding.
What I am faulting is the ignorance being spewed.
If you have never had a dog in the fight then your point still doesn't count.
By Zincubus' point I can toss my hat into a debate on any subject I want to just because I can google a photo of it??
I'm smarter than that and don't like making myself look foolish if I don't have to.
Then again this continual debate with someone that doesn't comprehend experience from theory makes many of us look bad or stupid or whatever but ironically none that "seem very defensive, aggressive and even stressed" fault for feeding frozen. SMH
