I've noticed that several people mentioned feeding live. Someone even mentioned that they leave a live mouse in with their corn for days at a time. (!)
Please, if you insist on feeding live, do not
ever leave them unattended. Here is an example of what happened to one Ball Python that was left alone with mice.

To those of you who find it 'thrilling' to feed live, I hope you realize the serious risks to which you are exposing your beloved pets... and all for your own joy. I don't believe I could sleep at night with that on my conscience.
