OT: Pinkies

clickman Jan 19, 2004 11:01 AM

Does anyone have a size comparison for a pinky mouse? Now that I think of it, I've never actually seen one in a size comparison to get an idea of how big they are. (I.E. vs a quarter, etc)

They range in size. If you ask for a small one, it's ABOUT the size of a pointer finger from the knuckle closest to the end, to the tip of your finger. On an average hand. Maybe a little smaller around, but about the size of a stack of 15 pennies. The next time your at a pet store, you could ask to see one.

None of the pet stores near me carry pinkies, sadly (I know Petsmart doesn't, and I'm pretty sure, but not 100% sure, that Petco doesn't. However, even if Petco did have them, I wouldn't buy from them) That's a big reason I don't have any snakes.

You can order the things on the internet, you know!

Yeah, I'm just too lazy to do that. $40 per silkworm order is enough for me.

Well, then you could get a snake. Snakes for everyone!
