Re: how to kill rats?!?! sdjkbvkdfjhvbc

Ehh cute or not it is a life cycle. I break the necks never been bothered. I also hunt so I think that might desensitize me a bit. Otherwise maybe I am just a bit off.. Im ok with it either way

Re: how to kill rats?!?! sdjkbvkdfjhvbc

After reading this thead , i am glad i buy frozen rats . I had no idea of the cruelty to these rats and mice . I dont think it should be down to anyone to take a life in such a inhumane way. I know you will be all thinking that i am a wimp, but its just the way i feel, and there is no need for it.

Actually my paint scraper method is the most humane way I know.

How do you think you get yours? Silly lady.

Ever see blood on yours? Maybe around the nose or anything? Hopefully not because then at least they used Co2. If there is blood. They were whacked.

But i am led to understand they are put to sleep , and this seems a nicer way than stuff i am seeing here , like the pillow case or a freezer, etc etc. At the end of the day ,i dont like any of it , not even the way i get them, but if it is instant , i can handle it , and it just seems some people know how to do it right , and some have not a clue.

But you own an animal that slowly asphyxiates their prey.. Most of these methods are more humane than that.. I very much doubt a petshop supplier is going to snap necks so the ones your using have probably suffered.

Small time breeders of home breeders that feed off their rats may use cervical dislocation but those that are euthanizing hundreds or thousands of rats are more likely to gas them just due to efficiency.

How do you mean they have suffered ? I am told they use gas as Rob has said , and even the method on the video would not be so bad if it was done quick , but it is not!!!
