Re: *sigh wow this sucks

Friday night i was in a hurry so i pop the rats in the microwave on defrost. When i went to pull them out one of the rat fuzzies had either ear wax or a ear infection. All this nasty yellow stuff was coming out it right ear. So it went in the trash. Not sure what it was, but wasn't going to give it to any of my snakes.

The nasty smell every was a Savanna monitor i use to have threw up two mice. puke.gif I fed it and we left town for two days. Smell like a rotting corpse. Took three month to get the smell completely out of my bedroom.

you were maybe too close to the rat in question resulting in synged rat hair

hair dryer always works well for me

takes a bit of explaining when a non snake related visitor arrives at the house when im in the middle of doing it though.

" why are you blow drying dead rats hair "

is the usuall responce

cheers shaun
