I'm going to be doing #2

Ah I'll try write some out for you.

Have to say I'm not impressed with the free ranging one... the part rats need an hour at the least is misleading... shouldn't it be 'generally' need. Taking into account elder, sick, and simply some that just don't like free range won't like that long?

I've finished #2 and #7    I'll see if I can whip up #5 tonight too.  Health is getting flooded with stickies

Health is getting flooded with stickies

Why not have a sticky page in each section of the forum, that then has the links to the stickies? This format seems to be used on many forums.

We don't really have a separate forum to put all of the stickies in though.  We don't have control over stuff like that.  We'd have to put them in Help & Suggestions and even then there would be no way to organize or order them (subforums for each section) and I think it would just get messy and confusing.     More so than now, anyways...

Sticky suggestion - More indepth diet recomendations for the different life stages and condition of the rat. ie. pregnant, nursing, sick, old, overweight, underweight etc.
