>got one....pfew....I can imagine the phone talk with friends...."What you're >up to tonight?"...."Nothing much...just watching my gerbils bulges!" LOL!!!
Could be worse. My conversation with my husband last night went something like this. Me: "We need to sex the gerbils." Husband: "Ok" Picks up gerbils turns them over. "They're all girls." Me: "That can't be right. I sexed them at ten days. At least two of them had nipples." Husband: "Well I don't see any little bulges." Me: "You're doing it wrong." Take gerbils turn them over notice very slight bulge near the genitalia. Turn the gerbil slightly, further examine, then with a critical eye, touch the area. Low and behold out popped bulge #1 and then #2. "Their testicles are retracted." Husband: "Well how do you tell then??" Me: "Push gently on the area around, if a bulge pops out it's a boy. Husband: "I'm not touching their balls!" Hands the gerbils back to me. Umm well that was gerbil sexing 101 lesson failure LOL. I don't think my husband's interested in sexing 5 week old gerbils anymore. Jenn
