Funnily enough I go to a super pet friendly college so I have actually found people who have asked me to “adopt” the rats my snake has refused...not sure how well an inbred feeder rat would do as a pet but who knows ! I have also just set one free, it literally frolicked in the grass. I guess live feeding is starting to become a pain because of things like this but before she got so picky I used to consider it much more low maintenance! Just not sure if she would even eat a dead rat since she never has.
