I don't own snakes because I like watching them eat, but I have to say, it is one of the coolest parts. Watching them strike, coil, and swallow their prey whole is fascinating whether feeding live or frozen thawed. How often when you show someone your snake/snakes do they say "Can we see them eat?" That's why so many people make videos of it. People love watching predators hunt. I was watching Jeff Corwin on TV once where he almost had the big O when he saw a tiger stalking it's prey.

Unlike some people, I don't feel bad for the rodents I feed. It is the fate of some animals to be eaten. I'm sorry, it's the food chain, the circle of life, the way things are.

To the OP, I don't think anyone was attacking you and I hope you don't feel that way. You posted on a topic that obviously a lot of people had something to say about so
