Posted 19/03/07 08:49 AM Share Posted 19/03/07 08:49 AM An old friend of mine was a herpatologists (sp?) and staying the night at his joint was always a 'one eye open affair'!!!He had close too 500 mice at any one time, he bred them for his pets. I still remember the day he showed me how to do it.Grab rodent by tail,flick on the edge of the coffee table, to render them unconcious,feed to hungry snake!But the bastard wasn't interested and the mouse came around again, and before the snake (now hungry) got to him, he lost his left eye! Notch up one for the rodent, but he didn't last much longer after that gutsy move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
