That doesn't mean that feeding sick rodents to reptiles is an acceptable practice. Remember, you are what you eat. I could eat a rotten apple and the apple wouldn't give me any diseases, however, that doesn't mean that I'm receiving good nutrition.
in no means would i feed a sickly animal to my snakes, this rat has the sniffles/cough and is very inactive. Other than that looks mighty healthy, eating fine, and is clean.
