Humane euthanasia-- n/ quick help

[infernalis]

Lori, you have my sincerest condolences.

R.I.P. & Slither on in the sky Curious....

My father told me of a method long ago, he was speaking about euthanizing mice that didn't die in the snap trap. He never let us attend the procedure. Shoebox with holes in one end, then start the car, and hold it to the exhaust so the carbon monoxide would put them to sleep. Someone else posted about oxygen needs being different in snakes, but do you think this would be effective and humane? And how long would you need to expose the snake, do you think for it to be effective? And if anyone does try this, please please please PULL THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE.

What a crappy way to gain knowledge, I feel like Mrs. Mengele just asking this.

Lori, I'm so sorry...these decisions are always tough, even when you know it's the right one. You "done good" for Curious.

Sorry about Curious, Lori.

Definitely not humane. The exhaust gases are hot and full of irritating particles.

Thank you all SO much. The support on here helps beyond words!! Curious really was a one of a kind little guy... always out and about, watching everything going on around him at the front of his tank. Calm as could be toward people... ate out of your hand. Never struggled at being held, never musked, just always had this eager little attitude-- seemed to look forward to everything new. He never shied away from me, even after daily injections which must have hurt.

He was a good little soul.

Reed, thank you for sharing him with me. I really, really enjoyed all the time I had with him. To think one little snake could connect us across the country... I keep wondering if Reed (the ribbon) is missing him in some snakey way this morning??

Thank you all again. You guys are my rock!!!

Lori, I can only imagine your pain and loss. I'm so sorry. I wish it could have been different. You have my love and thoughts.
