Aww I have seen post mortems in real life, so this doesn't bother me. Still, I empathise with you if you don't like it

I really want to get hold of a couple of these to try on Lizzy. Just need to find a pet shop selling them. Weirdly my OH is more grossed out by the idea than me.

To tell the truth I still don't want live feed in the house...a cricket escaped from next door and ended up on the flu of our fire, where it kept us all awake for a week chirping (or whatever). because it sounded so bird like I wanted to rip out the fire to rescue it..,even though no birds can get there.

Yeh, no live feeds...what if they escaped when you were after one or you dropped the container? Uh, no ta
