I'm not sure what that means, but it sounds funny as heck.

I know all of the killing methods, but I have never heard of deaath by piearced heart in feeders. It just seems like too much work.

Was there something wrong with the way I phrased it, patm1313, that it needed to be resaid? Just I am assuming that you've reworded that part of my post for a reason ...

I either missed your post or was just naming all of the killing methods I know. Sorry.

You don't know what your intention was?!?

Personally, I'm seeing a lot of this from you. You just collect information from other sources, and then spew it out. If you don't have experience or don't know, you don't need to say anything. Give your "submit reply" button a rest.

Jenni, you're hereby invited to be a guest blogger on my rant site, once I get it online and running.

You'll be perfect for it, trust me.

jazz

Flash freezing: You probably can't do many mice at a time, bt it is humane, and some companies even boast that flash freezing preserves them better.

I'm not really worried about the holes, as I have already fed them to my snake.

Nope. Not anywhere close. But I have read up on the methods.
