Kinda Grown Attached...

Well i have had this little feeder mouse in my possesion now for about 4 weeks. For some reason my snake doesnt want to eat. So i have been taking care of the mouse... feeding it, giving it water, stuff like that.... Now i dont want to feed my BP with this one. i kinda got attached...

Have any of you ever gotten attached to a feeder and ended up keeping it as a pet??


haha

Yup two times :)

"Lucky" and "Zeus" :D

All the time but they always end up as food :O

haha my mom came to my apt the other day and she was like ahhh you gotta keep him haha. So i may end up keeping him for now lol

Heck I have to watch I don't get too attached to our rat feeders. I'm forever finding a "good reason" to keep one or two back. The latest one is a really cute agouti marked female...has this huge agouti colored mark on her butt and with Robin's help I named this young female rat..."Betsy Buttpatch" LOL. Sometimes they are just too unique to feed off. :)

No way, in my eyes they are food not pets.

Not attached to feeders but I like my breeders.

The solution would be to keep him and get a female and start breeding your own mice ;)

Never, but once I had a rat and nobody would eat her so now she is growing up to be a breeder!

Yea i might breed and make my own feeders.... ill h ave to figure it out. I dont want 10000 of mice running around thought. How do you tell weather its a male or female so i know which to buy if i start breeding
