The easy way to do that is get a trio and set them up in a 10 gallon and dont' tell her put em in the closet or something for like a month. Then let her see them and say see you didn't even know they were here. Most people cave when they realize there is little to no smell attached to them.

Just tell her that Jody is going out of business soon, and you'll then have to pay $6.00 ea. for rats & $3.00 ea. for mice.

Re: ASF Tell ALLS... Finally decided to reveal to my BP.net brothers and sisters....
Does anyone know where to get Country Acres Hog Feed in the Chicago burbs? I tried Regole's feed and they are looking in to it but wont know till next Monday . Also tried Bob's in Wheaton and they haven't gotten back to me. I need to switch cause the bulk block, AKA: crap, is making my ASFs loose their hair.

High Copper
Most hog feeds I looked at have extreme overdoses of copper in them--hogs are highly resistant to copper, so it's added to their feed to improve their growth rates. The amount of copper in hog feed is high enough to just kill off sheep that get into it and eat it, for example.
While the rodents may be able to withstand these high copper levels, I am concerned for the health of any carnivore that eats those rodents. Were you able to find hog feeds that did not contain excessive copper supplements?
