[infernalis]

This big guy is "Buck" he is freaking huge! He also rules the harem. He's a happy rat. Especially since he will not be fed off any day soon. He's got work to do.

Years ago we kept rats and were also surpirsed by the size of their 'nads - they must be getting on for the highest ratio of body/nads in the animal kingdom

[shaunyboy]

when my kids had pet rats that was the talking point most days,when folk visited our house.he used to sit on a wooden perch and his nads used to swing back and forth like a clock pendulam.they were pretty enormus.the conversations always started "wow with look at the size of his" .....!!!
cheers shaun

I know- rats and mice have ridiculous 'nads! Mice are even worse than rats; I have no idea how they walk- I guess that's why they kind of shuffle...lol. Maybe the massive size is because of how prolific they are? I don't know, but either way it's pretty funny.

Wayne, don't you find that the little buggers spill the water dish out all the time?

[infernalis]

Actually they do well with the bowl.

They kept climbing on the water bottle and trying to get out, all the noise was driving me nuts, so I confiscated the bottle.

They tend to shovel junk into the water before they can spill any.
