$2.05 is the best I've seen, but I haven't checked Costco for at least a week.  My tank is just under 1/2 full, so I'm waiting until Monday or Tuesday to fill up!

I thought our gas was around $2.19, but I was pleasantly surprised today when I filled up at QT.  $1.99!  Yay, under two dollars!

Thank you so much for the adorable bowls and plate - that blue bowl with the retro-ish design at the bottom is definitely my new soup bowl    And I'm so excited to have the Rats Rule calendar, especially since my boy Nigel is in it this year    The hammocks are fabulous (don't give me that "they're not that great" crap!), and I immediately cleaned out the top portion of my FN and put them in!

Well, Chelsey...I can't say I blame her for adding the qualifier to go along with her hammocks...you are fairly intimidating given how many of us lust after your hammocks   But, I agree...those hammocks are totally awesome!! 

And thanks for giving in so graciously, Pink.  You know you'd be want to do the same if someone else had had their stuff nabbed.  Plus, this way, we get to turn the incident from "I hate horrible people who steal mail" to "I love Goosemoosers who are always there for each other."  Much better attitude this time of year, don't ya think?

My first two, which I still have with me. 

Jasper is a beige dumbo rex
Jynx is an agouti dumbo rex

Good one, Pink.  I forgot to mention this part.  -- I train my rats to get used to syringes too.  (ditto on the Ensure! though I also use juice or rice-milk, etc.)
and when one rat in a pair or group has to have meds I always "dose" the rest of them with the treat (no medication) so that there is not a "HEY WHY DIDN'T I GET ANY?" struggle.   

Black hooded girl...  Named Baby.

You tempt me, again. I'm going to track you down soon when you are on messenger; I might be interested in one of the rex hooded boys or.. erm whoever  plucks at my heartstrings. GGMR has been hitting like crazy lately, and I just adopted Lyric from you.. what.. 2 months ago? 

Pictures?

I know this is a really old topic, I'm not sure if anyone has posted a topic since early november of this year but the USDA has finally lifted the ban on pouched rats as well as all the other species in the origional ban so now they're fair to import(tho I'm sure the restrictions and q&t on that are intense), own, breed and sell though the USDA and specific states and towns might still ban them or require various permits - if you want to read check out: http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2008/pdf/E8-20779.pdf

Personally, I think they're cool but I will definitely be waiting a minimum of 10 years or 9-10 captive bred generations before I even consider owning one....

Those are all gorgeous, and seem very well thought through Kendra.

What are the ages for these guys? How long had they been together before the aggression popped up? Sounds like Bear is a prime candidate for a neuter.
