Shut the fuck up bible thumping faggots, The snake needs to eat, in my opinion i ite the head off the mouse first but this is humane, Fuck you religious faggots and actually open your fucking eyes.

I want to kill the mouse im going to give to my spider..but the fucking mouse is so cute i cant fucking doi it !!

@jrojeck Freshly killed smell more living to a snake and might have a better chance of being eaten. Frozen is even more humane though, since they kill by gas. Frozen also kills the possible sicknesses on the mice. I'd say they're pretty equal, though killing them might not be for weak hearted.

Ugh, the bone crackling gave me the willies. I'm doing my research for my new snake. I know there's kind of an argument for either type of feeding method but what really is the benefit to a freshly killed mouse over a frozen one?

This is a great video. I think you can also mention that if people (like me!) are sqeemish to pull the head, a pencil or screw driver lengthwise behind the head works too. Lucky for me, all my snakes eat frozen thawed, so I hardly have to kill my own! :)

Mine refuses dead prey, but she is real old and although she has been bitten she hasn't even became harmed.

Mine refuses to eat dead. :(

@gromann ok thanks

@mjlow123 That's a good rule to follow, however, some snakes have a disposition thats good enough that it doesnt make a difference. Corn Snakes for example are notoriously well mannered and can be fed in their cage typically without issue.
