He said he is on a budget and willing to eat mice. My guess is someone willing to eat mice dont care if its a quality mouse or not, and if its from a petstore its most likely not. Im disgusted by the thought of eating mice and would not touch one with a 10ft pole even if its the cleanest mouse in the world.Originally Posted by Willowy
If the rodents you're feeding your snakes are disease ridden and parasitic, so are your snakes. I hope you've found a better supplier than that. Rack-raised rodents ought to be about the cleanest animals you could get. You don't want to know how they raise chickens. . .
I didn't read the entire epic thread, lol, so I'm sure someone already addressed it. But, sure, humans CAN eat mice. Do you WANT to eat mice? Prolly not. Awfully bony. Same reason we don't eat sparrows or other tiny critters---too much work for not enough meat. But my uncles have stories of roasting rats (filthy tropical rats, not nice sanitary feeder rats) over a fire in Vietnam, and they're still alive. So knock yerself out. People will look at you a little weird though, haha.
