    Re: Feeding live mice and rats is dangerous... Wives tale?

    Well once again you cant read!!! But hey its ok to post 57 times and call other people liars that you have never met or even conversed with. Everyone has an opinion. I am curious how many animals you really have and for how long. No need in replying though IN MY OPINION I am too old to give a crap about your opinion any longer than I have. You go on and continue to make judgements about people from behind your computer. Have a great day.

    Only 2 people have been able to post picture "proof" of the scaring....

    1 of these IN MY OPINION clearly shows where a rodent was allowed time alone with the rodent.. as it had obviously been chewed on over an extended area. The owner claimed that as he watched, the rat immediately attacked the snake and bit multiple times.... before the owner could react. yeah...

    The other was a claim that a 1200 gram ball was scared by a MOUSE of average size...

    Many BIG names on this site... Ones that have collections us meer mortals can only dream of explain how after thousands and thousands of live feedings, they have never had a problem... Of course people accuse them of lying... or even said that they have to many snakes to even notice! LOL! I think it is safe to say when adam sells one of his 1500 dollar snakes, he is aware of any scars!!!!

    Interesting... very interesting...
