Some are picky but even those you can almost always train them to eat pre killed. Usually the most you need to do is just warm the rat up and wiggle it with a tongs. Snakes are pretty dumb so that’s enough for it to look alive to them. It’s a whole lot more convient to have a freezer full or rats than to keep live rats. Not to mention live prey can be dangerous to the snake; it usually isn’t but before I finally got my snake to start eating prekilled one of the live rats I fed her gave her a scratch on her eye cap.
then what’s stopping people from just going/staying on reddit?
Content isn’t an issue, the internet is filled with AI generators and bots. Meaningful content and engaged communities are what we should be encouraging.
Reposts and directly referencing reddit is counter to that imo but I appreciate the intent.
*Should clarify i have no problem with reposts but diaagreed we have a “content problem” but more an activitg issue/opportunity to make a unique fediverse-lemmy internet culture and copy-pasting reddit is not the way to go.
Perhaps keep it inside then? Your pet is murdering your local wildlife. There is a reason they are considered a huge danger to our biodiversity and an invasive species, you know
