LOL, I can't do that!!! A few years back, I started producing rats that had split face patterns/colors like you generally see on a torti cat. It looked pretty cool, and I found myself not wanting to feed these off....their sole intended purpose! I ended up with a lot of them, and finally had to "man up" and quit playing with the "pretty rats". I also had a similar thing with silky mice, and now prefer to only breed albino mice/rats! No color, no cool hoods, stripes, patterns, etc....just juicy "white" meat! LOL, snake keeper confessions! Take care!
