Wade, you've got more experience culling feeders than me, did you ever notice any evidence of ejaculate from them at death?

No I have not seen mouse ejaculate or even evidence that the mouse was giving it any thought. I have used cervical dislocation, carbon dioxide, and OH you little ****, dashed into the wall. In none of those cases did the deceased find it arousing in any way.

Just my experience.

I'm wondering if it was a reference to Freudian thanatos theory. I did a BSc in psychology so we only did a brief overview on the unprovable stuff.

Seems to me that Janine can avoid all this concern if she'd just feed herself a female mouse.

I'll cull them, freeze them, thaw them, even puree them for the sake of snakies, but I'm not doing that!

Don't ask me why, but that reminded me of a line from a song by Meatloaf, "I would do anything for love, but I won't do that!"

Sorry couldn't resist......

Time to call quits on this thread. I've never seen a butt-muncher thread go so stupidly wrong. I've conducted about 5,000+ live feedings in my life, and I've whacked about 500 against the wall. I've never seen anything but a golden drop of one-last-piss to mark the passing of the poor mice. It's another dumb and unsubstantiated theory. It's not worthy of consideration or discussion. It's just stupid. If there's evidence, then prove me wrong. And I'll need something more than a dead/incomplete link...
