Good morning to bay area...Good afternoon to Stefan!

What does pre-killed mean

It means its killed before it gets eaten. Its a term quite often used with mouse eating snakes. If you're going to feed them, you can take a live mouse, bash his head against a wall and then feed it to your snake. Thats pre-killed

It was a joke. Point was, you might as well call it killed instead of pre-killed.

Miriam and Mordecai cuddling before his last shed. They're so cute!!!!!

Good MONDAY you guys--- ugh!!! LOL It sure feels like a Monday. Having a hard time getting motivated.

Do you guys remember I decided I wanted to raise my own guppies for the garters? Well, I have realized the downfall to that idea. They take FOREVER to grow. LOL I guess it takes a while to get the right mix of adults and babies... right now I have a dozen weee little guppies and none of feeding size. Grow, babies, grow!!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day!!

And eating them is called "predation".

[drache]

I think veggies are easier to kill
they don't struggle, they don't run, many don't even hide, they generally don't display much fear
there's really not that much predation involved as far as I can tell
except perhaps in the case of certain funghi

oh wait
I just realized
one wouldn't generally prey upon carrots
however - one might prey upon one's neighbour's carrots

[Stefan-A]

Poor veggies, completely defenceless.

[drache]

there are many ways to die
the majority of beings dies by getting eaten
veggies are no worse off than rodents
