I found the charger to my camera and took this picture today. It's possible, I suppose, that I'm using the scale wrong, but I don't think so. As for the rats, yes they are about the size of the picture above. I ordered them from Layne Lab. out of California. I bought 10 pups and 10 weans. At least that's what they called them. Now if I can just get her to eat them.
