Im So Glad Im Not A...

Rat
we have breeder rats (because I have 2
snakes and its easier to buy 2 rats for
like $4 and raise the rats myself then to
buy 2 rats every 2-4 weeks for $2 each
rat) and they just had their first
liter...7 pups....Seven!
Its hard enough just having this one
inside me...How can anything have seven
babies?
I just hope they all make it, I love baby
rats, I think she might have eaten one of
them but im not sure cause I didnt get
home until afterwards but I saw what
looked like it could have been part of a
rat, but the rest she seems to be fine
with, maybe there was something wrong with
that one
its gross though, I think she gave birth
on the guy (they usually lay on eachother)
because she has blood on his back and
stuff
its insane

Rodents are weird.
Poor mice.  I love snakes but

one as a pet. I think of .Pikachu and cry

You are a braver woman than I - there is
no way I could watch a creature grow up,
knowing I was going to feed it to another
animal.. Do you feed them to the snake
when they are still alive or do you kill
them first? Do I even want to know?!

i use to have 3 rats,one boy and 2
girls.One girl got preggo and we put her
in another cage and she had her babies.The
other rat got preggo and had her babies so
we put them all together.Well one day I
looked in the cage and saw a head. .
.And the body about 4 inches away. .
.And it wasn't a body it was a hollow
corpse.They had started eating each other.
. .Ick!

Hmm I doubt you wanna know how we do it
really, its kinda cruel, but it saves them
both from pain and torture...Ill just say
it has to be knocked out first, that way
the rat doesnt feel it and the snake wont
get hurt (if you leave a live animal in
with a snake, if the snake doesnt eat it
the initial fear from the other animal
will deminish and it will try to hurt the
snake...Like if a bear doesnt attack you
after a while youd get the impression it
wont and may try something)
to be honest I cant do it anymore, I start
crying, I use to be ok with it, it is the
food chain after all, but not anymore lol
and yes...All rodents are very weird ^_^ I
have this theory that they got the name
rodent because they have a dent in their
brain...Im a retard I know lol
sandy if you really like snakes you could
always get ribbon snakes or something
(they are like little ones a reletive of
the garder snake) they eat fish, I know
that was a lot easier for my brother,
until he killed them cause hes evil and
stupid...But obviously I wouldnt advise it
with the little ones, I dont know what im
gonna do when my little one gets here, I
cant bring myself to get rid of them ive
had them too long and love them, but I
know its dangerous (even if they dont bite
(which they dont, never have, never even
showed the inclination, not that they
wouldnt though, it is a snake after all)
but they can carry selmanella, I have to
have my mum or hisband handle them right
now cause im afraid of getting selmonalla
and hurting my little girl)
sorry im bored and tired so im ranty and
talkative, not much of that probably made
sence, sorry, I think im gonna take a nap
soon

lol trevor didnt like them at first
either, but he realized ive had my snakes
longer then ive known him so he had to get
use to it, he even holds the big one (a
red tail boa, shes at least 5 feet,
probably bigger by now)
he adores my ball python though (hes about
maybe 3 feet)
i could actualy see him trying to eat it
