Live fuzzies?

Well I went to the local petshop to buy some fuzzies and hoppers for my two corns. (I usually buy a couple weeks worth at a time)

But they didn't have any frozen fuzzies and weren't getting restocked until Thursday. So I asked if they had any live ones and they did. So I got one.

Will my snake be ok to feed this to her? Will she only want live food here on after? And should I stun it?
 
A fuzzy isn't likely to do any damage to your snake, but unfortunately some do get picky after eating them. My inclination would be to pre-kill the fuzzy.
 
Cervical dislocation is the go-to for euth'ing one mouse. There are explanations online, basically you pull their tail while holding them down by their neck.
 
Thanks.
I did do a quick Google search but all the results were people feeding their snakes pre-killed fuzzies
 
Hey Shady, I had to do the cervical dislocation procedure myself 2 days ago for the first time. Had to do it on three hoppers actually. I hope you are not squeemish. I was afraid at first but after doing it i realized it's very humane and very sudden for the mouse.

Type cervical dislocation in youtube and you should get a few videos. Make sure you watch atleast 3-4 different ones.

Good luck!!!
