Random Thoughts and Such...

Merlin; I just got off the Wikipedia site, and yes, the classification was changed in the early 1900's. Take a look at the capybara description at Wikipedia. A very interesting animal, and a great food source. Human, reptile, and felines!

Re: Random Thoughts and Such...

All in all feed and breed what's good for you and the snakes. I would have no problem feeding rabbits, though my wife might. I keep 3 breeding groups of mice and dispatch and feed about 35 adults per month. I normally have just what I need to feed off at a time. I have been looking into larger feeders too, my wife won't have rats alive in the house.

Funny...I thought bunnies were related to cats...they can breed and all. Just have sterile young.

Re: Random Thoughts and Such...

Cat's and Rabbits can't breed.

Cats:
Class: Mammalia
Order: Carnivora
Family: Felidae

Rabbits:
Class: Mammalia
Order: Lagomorpha
Family: Leporidae

You're reffering to cabbits I assume?

Thats just a genetic quirk where the hind end resembles that of a rabbit rather than a cat, they can't really breed.

To ryan; Yah....! of course we know that cats and rabbits can't breed, but how do you explain all of those 'Jackalope' trophies mounted on the walls of all those hunting lodges! (Where is this going???) Have a great day, and a better tomorrow. Semper fi

LMAO. Well the jackalope is of course the evil demonspawn young of a Jackrabbit that has bred with an antelope, Or maybe just someone with a dead rabbit, a dead antelope, and way too much time on there hands.

Gotta love all those taxidermist tricks! I know several people who actually bought into the whole Jackalope story!
