Re: WARNING! courtesy of local petstore cashier
Where do they get it? Myths. Plain and simple. If they hear it, especially from lots of other people, then it must be true. And there are TONS of myths out there about rats and snakes...
And the truly ignorant will never listen to or believe those who try and correct them. :) This goes for both customers and employees...trust me. I heard some real doozies working at Petsmart. Especially since I made it my 'mission' of sorts to help others understand that rats were the best pet for young children(at least, out of what we carried), not hamsters. I had a fair number of successes, but some people... oh man. :)
I do admit, tho, that I had never heard someone claim that different breeds of rat would 'fight and kill each other' if kept together. That's one for the books.

What... You didn't notice when you bought them that the Rexes were wearing little red shirts and the Dumbos were wearing little blue shirts? Whoa, you better separate them now before they get into a turf war on who gets to sell drugs to the hamsters.

Well you know how it is, it starts with a few insults

Come to think of it, I have noticed a "nose in the air" attitude with some of the rexes.

I can just see the small animal specialist pouring over the corporate guidelines for information about how to handle that!

Guess I'm gonna have to find a CD of Ray Stevens singing "Everybody's Beautiful". Change starts with ME!!! I'm gonna fix this! Rats all over the world will be holding little rat hands and living in harmony!
Thanks everyone for making this thread so much fun!!!

So I guess that my rats should all be dead now ;) My male is rex, and my females are not. So I geuss that their offspring should be beating themselves up? :d

I thought about that too! What about litters where you've got dumbos and rexes together? Or worse yet, a dumbo rex? Poor rat hates itself!
