Great idea breaking out the new and old world Rats from the endless corn listings!!!

Lloyd how are your hatchlings doing?

If lead paint is so deadly why do they make it so delicious?

They haven't had their first shed yet, but today is my feeding day so I gave them(6 total) each a small pinkie anyway. We shall see.....

Just my opinion but I think it would have been sufficient to break out the rats from the corns. Old world vs New world was not needed and those that don't know will just mix it up anyway.
Just my opinion.

I agree. Too much separatism=low traffic. May be harder to sell with some people clicking on one rat classified and not the other. People looking for pets may not know where to click or not know where the snake they want is from. Works easier for those of us who do know, no need to sift through ads that don't interest us.

These changes come often, before we know it there will be genus-specific listings and separate listings for morphs/regulars. Splitting us up is not always the best way to go, there should be a limit.

much easier to find stuff.

Agreed. When corns and rats were together, it was more than a little overwhelming. Time and again I'd become frustrated looking for old world rats. This is a welcome change that I hope will continue. Now folks just need to pay attention to posting their animals in the correct category.

This change is great IMO, along with the changes to caging, heat, supplies areas.

Now PLEASE, kingsnake, break out rhacs from the rest of the Geckos.
