the fact i still dont get is i cant buy a live rodent and feed it to my snake that gets killed the way nature intended, but i can buy frozen which were killed by some person on an "assembly line".

now i have never seen a rodent factory (which i dont beleive to be regulated by the fda) but if you think of a chicken or cattle processing plant (which are regulated by the fda) some of them can be pretty bad so just how bad can a unregulated factory be? throw in the fact that majority of people look at rodents as a pest that they want to be rid of
