Re: first babies this year !!!
Thnx everybody for such nice words, it makes me really happy to read so many congrats
And I'm glad that everybody understand it's hard to put a baby garter down, but it's the best thing to do for a deformed one like that  |

Not to derail this thread at all but, Is putting them in the freezer the most humane way? I'm not accusing or judging, just asking for my own interest. |

Re: first babies this year !!!
well im sure a quick snap of the neck or being smashed with a brick would technically be the quickest least amount of pain to the animal, but you'd sure get a bunch of outrage for doing that even though techinically it's less pain to the animal, freezing on the other hand takes a little while and in the mean time the animal just has to bare with it, im not gonna judge how people do it
