reptile preservation...thats, ummm. Slightly on the icky side! All my pets have been buried apart from a horse which was cremated.
But putting a rep in the freezer, i find that kinda funny! |

Don't see a problem with it. Just don't do it myself. _________________

with the smaller frogs if they die its hard to notice in a well planted viv so I might not find them before they rot down to plant food.
larger frogs I tend to flush (larger frogs in my area of keeping are 2.5 inches at most ) _________________ Paul

sorry for any bad memories people lol.
Interesting that most people seem to not like the idea. To be honest I think I have animals that are "pets" and others that are more "specimens", and i guess I wouldn't do it to an animal I consider a pet, and by the sounds of it most of the people that have responded keep their animals as pets. Anyway thanks for responses, any more are welcome.
true_viper put me down for a couple of snake sausages |
