Like I said, I did not mean to be rude and I SHOULD have said it was my opinion, not fact. I was not aware that it was indeed safe to feed small mice (fuzzys) without supervision as I had been told continously never to feed live. I learn so much everyday and enjoy everyones opinion on this forum.
I live about an hour from you and I've got no clue who you're talking to but it's certainly not frowned upon feeding live. Most of the people I've spoke with feed live and breed their own rats because it's more cost effective, and they sell of the excess that they don't use personally as frozen rats to pet owners.
