Is HE SERIOUS?? :angry01: Hubby aka Mango asked me tonight "How long do you microwave a RAT for?" :smash: Like he was actually going to help me out w/ feeding the gang....LOL

UGH I swear, this is NOT the first time he has asked me this, I just rolled my eyes tonight cause I have told him before you do not microwave fuzzy/hoppers *two words that are still foreign to him..lol*.

AND just when I think he's coming around....Oh wellllllllllllll :uhoh:
 
LOL Sounds abit like my BF .... I was making up laying boxes and talking to my mother and telling how much of each ingredient I was putting in and he pipes up with "how long do you have to bake them?" I about died laughing LOL John never helps me with the snakes..... he doesnt care if I have them or how many.... but he doesnt really like them. But if I need an extra hand for holding he will atleast do that... otherwise I am afraid of what he would feed them or how he would warm them up LOL Good luck there Vikki... I feel for ya *hugs* :)
 
I know this is a bit off-topic, but what would happen if you actually did microwave a mose/rat? Would it explode :eek1:?
 
i would almost prefer al not to be interested, better then fighting over who gets to feed who every week LOL
and of course the kids are getting into it now so it's nothing but a battle on feeding days.
even getting bit doesn't slow the kids down, one of my big girls got a little to hungry and skipped her rat and thought the kid might taste better.

8 snakes and only get peace if the kids are sleeping and the man is at work, not that i try to feed during those times......

on the up side, lets me expand faster, al just keeps claiming the odd one.

You know what happens when you put a hotdog in the microwave? Imagine that... only fuzzy and with tail.

Thanks for the info, quite interesting. It's funny because I was thinking about the same analogy about the hot dog when I posted my question.

Sadly, I have to agree with the chicken thing. At least that's the case with the pinkies I get. They're not pungent, but if you set one out to air thaw you can smell it if you really try.

Lol, when I first fed my snake I thought they would be exremeley smelly. I just thought, "Hey, they smell horrible in the pet store, so they must smell pretty bad when I heat them up." But it wasn't so bad, so I'm not complaining...:)
 
When I saw the topic of this post I was so scared I had to read what was going on... I almost died laughing myself though at some of the posts... hehe ;) sillies.
 
My husband is a VERY tolerate man. That said, when I first started out with cornsnakes, eons ago, I nuked a mouse in an ill advised attempt to speed up the thawing process. Not a good idea! Needless to say my incredibly good natured husband strongly requested that we purchase a new microwave and toss the "soiled" one!:rofl: I switched to thawing in warm water in a coffee cup (I only had one snake at the time). Until one day a neighbor was over visiting and saw it and said, "Mental note to self, Never drink coffee at Terri's house."
I frequently get new snake owners who come into the store wondering why their animals are not eating. Upon questioning, microwaving the food or trying to feed it to them still frozen is a common response. It just reinforces my thought that one can never be basic enough in explaining how to care for an animal. Of course the creative things people come up with are always entertaining to say the least!
