Frozen Thawed Questions

I replied specifically to you and your narrow minded comments regarding the "sadistic" killing of rats to be used for snake food. This is an open forum and there are no stipulations saying that we can't answer the original question AND offer alternative suggestions. Please use some common sense when creating posts. If you have nothing helpful to post just refrain from doing so, because quite frankly you come off as arrogant and uninformed when making statements like those above.

It's okay child.

Not everyone can apparently think to check to see how many rodents I have in the freezer every once in awhile.

My comments aren't narrow minded. I think people should refrain from pre-killing rodents for no reason. I think it's gross when there's plenty of other options viable and don't wish to see it promoted when clearly the original poster wanted away from live rodents as much as possible.

If you say so man.
Culling food items is a practice that has been used for ages, I guess now everyone prefers someone else to do it. If you think it's gross that's on you. As for myself, if I need some frozen rodents and want them fast and conveniently, I will continue to cull them and freeze them myself. Likewise if the OP of this thread finds himself in the same situation my suggestion still stands. If you want to label those of us that do practice culling as sadistic so be it, just don't do it without expecting retaliation.

If you wish to continue this discussion, Pm me.

Oh don't get me wrong. I've bred my own rodents for my snakes. I had no problems culling them as needed. So don't think it's because I need someone else to take care of things for me.

I just find it borderline sadistic to encourage it for someone who clearly had no interest in it.

The OP of this thread has not expressed any preferance in regards to the culling of live rodents before feeding. In fact he hasn't commented since starting this thread.

You are very knowledgeable in the realm of snake keeping and I respect that, the reply you supplied to my thread was in fact helpful but throwing in blanket statements without atleast stating the common courtesy of "in my opinion" makes you come off as a little arrogant. That's just my opinion.

You're not the first to say it!

Anyway...we'll stop this now as I'm bored of going round in circles on this topic.

Glad you found my post informative.
