Re: Killing Live prey
the bucket does gas them, the dry ice turns gasious quickly, the c02 floods the container, the dry ice freezes things fast too. It's a flash frozen gassing.

This. Dry ice in water turns into gaseous CO2, which then overflows the bucket and goes down to the mice in the bottom of the cooler, killing them quickly and painlessly.

I may have misunderstood, and I think v87 did too. You don't put the mice in the bucket of water right? The bucket of water is just in the cooler with the mice, and the cooler air comes out of the bucket and falls down so they never actually get wet, only cold air and gas?

haha, it looked at me in a way I didn't like, jk. No I followed someone's advice in here to feed a fuzzy, but I was afraid it would bite my baby so I panicked and flicked it in the face and it either died or fainted.. then my guy ate it. I've been really busy at work lately so haven't been online too much.
