In Reply to: Check this female ball out! posted by Scorpion on May 05, 2003 at 20:25:48:

With all due respect, you are being completely ignorant. Yea, I had a wild caught ball and refused to feed it frozen/ thawed or prekilled prey because I tought it was so "cool" seeing my ball kill something. Also, I was thinking it was good for him... being closer to his natural way. Well, guess what... he got attacked by a rodent and the thing bit his head. Left a nice and nasty scar this is still there to this day, 5 years later.
Hmmm... that's a no brainer.... if you like your animal (hopefully love) then you will heed my precaution, as well as any SANE herper... feed your animal pre killed or frozen thawed and save the poor things life.
You know, as an after thought, and don't take this as a personal assault because it isn't... you seem smarter to me than this... but I feel really sorry for the animals that end up with people that do not take PROVEN precautions...
