Answer to one question we've ALL been..

rainbowsrus Sep 28, 2007 12:34 AM

asked, How long/big are their (BRB) teeth?

Got tagged slightly tonight while feeding Dottie and even though she barely got me (nailed the mouse but good) she left a tooth hanging out of my thumb. So of course I had to take a pic of it....

Laying on a penny to show relative size.....

That is so cool. Sorry you got tagged and more so, sorry she lost the tooth, but it's cool to see. I know, I'm kinda odd.

to dangle the poor mouse with your hand either slide glass n toss or use tongs geesh lol. sure did make my day better lol i always live by the theory of no face shots and i should be good lol. but dave now that one of her fangs is gone how will she ever fill her pray with venom?

rainbowsrus Sep 28, 2007 10:49 AM

Funny thing is she was in her moss hide box, came flying out of there as I went to drop it in the opening.

Well, she's just gonna have to learn how to be left fangded.

This time of year I get tagged daily, but mostly by the babies.

Dottie is an odd one, she goes on these mouse binges. Been eating rats OK, then starts turning her nose up at them. Offer her a mouse and OMG watch out, it's like a fix to a drug addict!!! Only problem is, it's several mice before you equal even a small rat.

is the bloody hand lol but I bet that threw you for a loop a little graze like that
Bob

rainbowsrus Sep 28, 2007 05:29 PM

Wasn't even bloody, only a drop or two. Really, it went into my callous and didn't do hardly any damage.

Figured she didn't draw no blood so I posted "little graze" but my bad for the confusion and congrats on Savannah but you should let her go with Mickey I really want some hypo hets and some red ones so I figured Savannah is the guilt trip working on you lol but I tried, hell I'll even let you get first pick too
Bob

rainbowsrus Sep 28, 2007 06:04 PM

considerate, letting me have first pick of my own babies. Such a gentleman!!

I was thinking about this and already decided I need to invest into the Calico project first. Not to say I won't also work on producing really nice outcrossed hypos and het hypos, just that this coming year, Fluffy will get both Daisey and Savannah. I still have several candidates for both Mickey and Dumbo and each will get two girlfriends this coming season. Dotty (if I can get her up to weight), Minnie (already on track), Eve and one more unrelated female to be determined. Duh, not Ann, maybe Betty or Crystal......hmmmmmm decisions decisions....

Wilma is locked in with Fred........want more lil Daiseys slithering around!!!
