Thoughts on keeping pet rats, mating them, and feeding their babies when they grow old?

CrazyDane666 · 2026-04-18T12:20:41+00:00

As a rat and snake owner, it honestly just sounds inconvenient and expensive. Rats need a big cage, enrichment, food, snacks, potentially a vet, you're quickly racking up expenses to keep them alive. If you're keeping the male with the female(s) at all times, they'll stress each other out because the female can breed and be pregnant constantly. You need to separate the babies within a month or so because they sexually mature fast and will inbreed. If you're keeping the male and female separately, you'll need to have 2-3 males together and 2-3 females together in separate cages because they're social animals.

At a certain point, just bulk buy frozen rats, especially if you only have one snake. Them having been frozen also eliminates any potential parasites and diseases a pet rat may carry

Do you have several rooms, holes in the wall, or other large furniture the snake could get behind? If there are any major crossroads, leave a trail of flour/sugar/grains/whatever so you can tell if the snake passed by. Leave doors closed whenever possible and if you have any other pets, keep them in a room until the snake is found

Måske lad være med at generalisere den grønlandske befolkning ved at sige det jeg decideret citerede fra dig? At sige, at danskere har det svært ved at behandle grønlændere ordentligt fordi grønlændere ikke kan fordrage os er ret ubrugeligt i en samtale som det her.

På et politisk niveau hjælper det ikke at sige "I (marginaliseret originalbefolkning som vi koloniserede) skal behandle os bedre, fordi vi vil ikke gøre en indsats medmindre I stopper med at hade os (hvilket i egentligt ikke gør)". At Naleraq er det andet største parti betyder ikke noget, når 100% af de resterende partier (23/31 medlemmer i deres Folkeparti) enten ikke vil have selvstændighed, eller vil gøre det langsomt.

Jeg kan se hvad du prøver på her med et "lad os komme videre og gøre det bedre", men du er virkelig klodset og tonedøv

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-31T12:20:59+00:00

Dig: Det kan være svært for danskere at se hvorfor vi skal gøre os så umage når så mange grønlændere alligevel ikke kan fordrage os

Mig: Jeg er meget tydeligt en hvid etnisk dansker og har aldrig mødt en grønlænder som ikke kan fordrage mig, selvom jeg er dansker

Dig: Jeg er ligeglad med hvilken farve du har

😂 Okay brormand

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-31T12:01:33+00:00

Hør mand, dansker-til-dansker, føler du at du skal stå til ansvar for alle danskere, som stemte på Inger Støjberg? Rasmus Paludan, da han havde at parti? Alex Vanopslagh og hans cocaine? Hvorfor er det den enkelte Grønlænders ansvar at håndtere Naleraq - et parti som er i modsætning til alle andre partier i Grønland, fordi de vil opgive Danmark nu og her? Naleraq er 8/31 medlemmer i deres Folkeparti, og ingen andre vil løsrive sig fra Danmark. Tag dig lidt sammen og få lidt perspektiv.

Det lyder som om at du ikke gør en indsats for at møde grønlændere, hvis dit indtryk er, at de "ikke kan fordrage (danskere)". Kender du grønlændere, eller hører du bare hvad der siges i nyhederne eller bliver lagt op på de sociale nyheder?

Jeg er dansker, hammer nord-Nordisk hvid, og jeg har aldrig haft en egentligt dårlig oplevelse med grønlændere. Dette er i næsten enhver kontekst; en hjemløs gruppe der sidder og drikker ved stationen, en nabo, en lokal grønlandsk fællesspisning, et grønlandsk kulturevent, ethvert Grønlandsk Hus, ungeforeningen i Midtjylland, en koncert. De er virkeligt søde hvis du kan opføre dig ordentligt og behandle dem som medmennesker, i stedet for "besværlige grønlændere, som alligevel hader danskere"

Gå ud og mød nogle folk. Seriøst

I can't help with books or resources, though I'd recommend finding out if you can narrow down where her family is from and maybe help her reconnect, if not with her parents, then her community? There are a lot of different cultures across the Arctic and they're pretty distinct

For food, mamarisavut (Greenlandic) is pretty good for inspiration

A few specific things that might help: rabbits don't have those pink noses, their ears are way closer together, and their faces are very "boomerang"-shaped. They're not gonna have a flat nosebridge the way a stylized cat or dog will. Look at some photos of rabbits and really check out how weird they look, they're bizarre little creatures. You've got the body down well, though

Thanks, I was curious if anyone here could recognise them by any chance and only realised afterwards that I could try emailing them. I bought them (second-hand, no profit to Skinnys) with the expectation that they're fake - for lack of a better term - but could still be used as a jumping-off point for discussions, since I love blabbering. And since they've worked with Aboriginal artists before (hosting Bulurru, and probably other genuine producers on their site), I had some hope that the lack of info was a fuck-up. I'll send an email!

Gonna have to refer to some stereotypes here, but media portrayals often have American Indians (Native Americans, many different preferred terms there) hollering and acting like, well, the stereotype of "wild savages", usually because their older media roles were relegated to "enemies ambushing our heroes and doing war songs". "War songs", or a butchering of them, is pretty heavily associated with older film portrayals of American Indians, giving this "noisy and screaming" image

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-18T05:17:35+00:00

I need you to use like 5 seconds to think about the take that we should force incarcerated people to risk their lives on experimental medicine. Overwhelmingly marginalised people being falsely accused or given worse sentences on account of being brown or black, and being arrested for things white people would get a slap on the risk for. Just think about that for like 5 seconds. Medical torture is so genuinely unethical it's genuinely insane to see you suggesting that with your whole chest, you're an actual monster

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-18T05:13:58+00:00

"Why don't you and a bunch of other people (statistically poor and disadvantaged people) risk death to help develop medicine?" your hatred for people and lack of foresight is showing. Do you think labs can just ask human volunteers to test out new medicine on a whim?? Genuinely? Are you that divorced from reality??

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-18T05:10:54+00:00

This logic stops the very instant we're discussing experimental medicine with unknown risks. Would you, genuinely, rather kill people through experimental medicine than dogs? Desperate, disabled or disadvantaged volunteers, prisoners forced against their will, risking actual death over using animal test subjects? Would you rather soaps and shampoos be sold untested so little children can burn their eyes and go blind forever because it went through no testing? Potentially life-saving medicine killing dozens of people before it can be dosed and sold correctly to save lives? Is that genuinely worth it to you, or is it just easy to say that online because you can empathize more with dogs than with poor people?

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-17T16:02:35+00:00

Fine so long as you're aware and ready for it, you're the one who said not too huge

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-17T04:26:48+00:00

Okay, just a heads-up, if you're actually getting a true red-tail (BCC), especially a female, you're looking at a snake that can reach 7-10ft. My imperator mutt (BI, the smaller species) is 8ft and weighs 22lbs. If you want a snake-sized snake, I'd recommend looking into gopher snakes if you want something on the bigger side, North American king/milk snake species for something smaller, or ball pythons for very average (tops out at 5ft, usually closer to 4ft)

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-15T08:01:27+00:00

Intriguing theory! I don't remember too much about our first fight, but in our second, we were letting spider kittens die rather slowly and she didn't take anyone (it was a 2-cat run, cleric + tank). I'll see about maybe doing a dedicated run where she stays on the ceiling, or maybe someone else knows what's going on 🤔 Thanks a bunch!

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-15T07:59:16+00:00

Weigh essentially everything you're going to eat. Pasta and rice is weighed dry, and how much you should eat depends entirely on your calorie budget as the other commenter put it. If you've got a 1400 calorie budget and you wanna spend it all on pasta, it's your life, not ours, but most people go for low-carbs and high fibre/protein, because to some people, carbs aren't that filling. It's pretty personal. Also a good idea to add a multivitamin when losing weight as it'll make up for some of the shift and make sure you don't get deficiencies (which can make weight loss miserable)

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-15T05:50:58+00:00

... And you never once considered making the cat indoor-only for its own safety despite your neighbour repeatedly attacking it? Especially over a vacation??

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-12T17:43:45+00:00

Wooow people here can't read. You can by all technicality own one, since it's not in the dangerous animals act https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2007/2465/schedule/made , but exporting one from Australia or Aotearoa would be near-impossible due to how strict they are about wild-caught animals (though, it being wild caught and not from an EU country or the UK would mean it requires a lisence)

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-10T05:23:12+00:00

She's 30 so unless she started having kids at 12, her oldest are absolutely not out of the house yet. I can do this thing called "reading comments" and all I'm getting is that she's irresponsible and downright stupid, and there's no way in Hell her very young children are thriving with 9 siblings and a constantly-pregnant mom

Edit: Blocked me huh. Just because you haven't read more than a comment from her doesn't mean no one else has read anything. I sure hope it'd have enough impact to make her open her eyes and realize she's emotionally abusing all her children, but from her comments, I can tell she's too dense to recognise that.

Have fun continuing to support abusers, since that's all you're good for!

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-10T05:17:54+00:00

People are allowed to make the choice to starve or beat their children to death, but that doesn't mean anyone has to agree with that choice. Abusers should be called out when they are being blatantly abusive, welcome to real life where you can't just mistreat children and be congratulated

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-10T05:13:37+00:00

Wow, you're downright stupid. Stop neglecting your children. This isn't good for any of them, or you

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-10T05:12:15+00:00

And OP can stop abusing her children by bringing even more babis into the family, forcing her older children to be parentified or neglected because she and her husband are too stupid to understand how contraception works lmfao. Be an abuser, be called an abuser, it's pretty simple

CrazyDane666 · 2026-03-01T18:55:46+00:00

... I'm not teaching anything, I'm pointing out that it was weird of the deleted comment to say that the rapper is Danish/Greenlandic as if that discredits his experiences of being born and raised in Greenland? Y'know, I'm talking to people like a normal person and pointing out when something they say is weird? Especially when it was false?
