Ruby's First Rabbit!!!

[Pork Chops N' Corn Bread]

It'll be $225 for all the rabbits and rats I'll need for over a year. I may want to just order some more stuff because everything I need will take up 2 boxes anyways.

Ruby is a REAL snake now! Yeah!!!! She's a bunny killer ... maybe I should start collecting all them dead ones on the road and send them your way?!

You've got room for a year's worth of feeders? I'm jealous.

Yep. A freezer from about 15 years ago in the basement that only has popscicles(about 3 years old) and rodent scicles!! lol I have the 2 bottom drawers to my self and the rest is open in case we even need it. I have about 300 rodents in there already ranging from weanling mice all the way up to XXL rats!!

Now Pork...Listen to me ok? If you have 300 rodents...why in the world would you order MORE?? Freezer burn will ruin them eventually ya know. Then you will be out all that money!
And why are you in such a hurry for Ruby to grow up? She's barely 5 feet and eating rabbits already? There is nothing wrong with her eating rats for awhile yet. Or are you just jealous and wanting her to be big like Chance? I'm serious here...you cannot compare YOUR snakes growth to anyone elses snake. They all have their own growth rate and I think Ruby would be just fine on rats for awhile yet. She will grow to be a monster like Chance in her own due time. Don't force her to grow up so fast and live a shorter life because YOU want her to....

lol, the most of the rodents are the small sizes for the savannah monitor. That makes sense Jem, thanks. How many rats would you say it would take till she outgrows the XXL so I don't order too many. I have a few XXL here now that when I am done with her XL rats I will see if she can take easily enough. I actually have mixed emotions about her getting big. I want to see her get big but the laws here forbid anysnake over 8' so I will have to wait 2 1/2 years till I can get a permit so growing too fast may be a problem.
