Everybody loves "bite pics"

I have a "left overs tank" this is a tank where I keep the live rats that don't get eaten for next week. You see I have found that if I feed PK and they don't eat I have to throw out rats and at 2.50 a rat that can add up. So I keep them till next week save me money in the long run. Well I have a little male albino rat that is really quite friendly and has gotten to where he'll even take the food right out of my hand (cute right) well this morning I tried in and he took one sniff of the food and then chomped and held on to my finger. No the worst thing I have ever felt but one hell of a wake up call at 6:30 in the morning.. LOL So enought chin music here what in looks like LOL don't laugh.

not much to look at I know but every body loves bite pics.

pfffth! that's it?! :P

i should have posted pics of my last bite--the one where blood squirted out into the cage when momma rat latched onto my finger and when she finally let go i stood there bleeding all over the floor (and onto my cat's head because he wanted to see what the ruckus was :rolleyes: ) while i made sure everyone was contained in the cage properly and slid the drawer back in. i swear she hit bone with that chomp!

but anyhow, sorry for the little nip you got there. now you know why sometimes feeding by hand can be exciting. :D

Just be happy he isn't a full grown adult. Now their bites HURT and man do you bleed!

To quote Cue, that is some weaksauce! I've been bitten worse by my cat. :)

Oh he may have won the battle but I will win the war I think I let him play with me 3000 gram female this thursday..LOL

To quote Matthew McConaughey in Failure to Launch this wasn't just any rat it was like a big over sized grizzly bear bob cat rat. I'm pretty lucky to still be alive.

Yeah they usually go right for the jugular *snort giggle*. Do make sure you keep an eye on it though and I hope you rinsed it well and applied a bit of neosporin. Rat bites, even little weenie rat bites, can go nasty on you.
