yeah.. it does end up becoming part of owning snakes that you do get used too..
I used to always feel bad for the mice I bought to feed my snake at first, even when they were frozen already.. the pinkies were the worst for me (they just look so tiny and the fact that they had never even got to experience any part of thier lives yet made me really upset..
but you DO end up getting over the remorse factor the long you do it I find, now after almost a year of owning my first snake who's now on his hoppers, I went out and got a TINY Mexican milk snake, SOO here I am back to buying pinkies.. lol now I can just look at them as food.. and without feeding my shake they would die... it just a part if owning these amazing creatures that us animal lovers have to deal with. lol
(and now I also love watching my snakes eat, I love how primal they become! I think that's one of the main things that admire about these animals.. their instinctual behavior.)
