"Well, we could possibly get infected from eating the birds, so let's eat these dirty, nasty rodents instead!!" YUM!

BTW, I don't ever watch Fear Factor because IT repulses me, but I was flipping channels last week and saw a girl lying in a coffin-shaped container, having a barrel-full of RATS poured on her!! If that is not repulsive enough, her "boyfriend" became angry with her after she couldn't sit in the coffin anymore - he said "it didn't look THAT bad" - what a jerk. That show is like a train wreck - you just can't look away some times. But, I will not seek it out in the future because it made me very naseuous (thank God I wasn't still pregnant when I caught this scene!)

Being in a container with tamed rats would be something on the order of being in it with retriever puppies....they're exhuberant and energetic, not vicious. Now the leavins after...could be messy...but can't blame the rats for having small bladders and bowels! I let mine climb on me and snuggle up when I have them out and the worst I get is a minor dousing or rarely, a scratch from a nail....they're actually very gentle animals.
