Ever go into a pet store, look over at the rat section and spot a pregnant rat? If you buy it, it's like twelve meals for the price of one! This happened to me yesterday; scored a preggo dumbo rat female for 5 bucks, and she is humungous! Real pretty too; she's white but with some reddish coloring, like a roan horse, or kinda like paprika sprinkled on white potato salad. Oh yay!
