 |
|
the place i get my food from is going to all rats. can someone tell me the equivilent size of rats to the following mice. pinkies, small, medium and large. also some of my royals dont want rats, they just turn noses up at them and then dive on the mice i put in instead. any tips on changing them over, or should i just leave them. i mean if i wanted to eat a steak and someone shoved pasta in, i wouldnt eat it either!!!!

Now that's a pain - why are they changing? seees like they are cutting out a huge proportion of keepers.
I'd start looking somehwhere else for rodents.

Get your hubby to bash em?
You could buy a rodent reaper if you were bothered about causing them pain, they just go asleep then, and don't wake back up.
