Most of the time a central grade Is the kiss of death.

But a $4.00+ average on your rats Is pretty good On this market.

But that’s not a true average with the bb. You’re always the first to point that out to others.

I would love to go with you. But I’m certainly not going to be of much help. I’m thinking you and Muskrat would be a good pair??

Those were February rats. AS most of us know a few months makes a huge difference.

Rats I shipped are from 3 years ago, plus my small, medium and damaged from the last 2 years. About 70% sold and I still have mostly 3x 2x left. The thing that's weird is some of the lots I had over a 100 in, never seen that before.

I lost my receipt from the NAFA pickup guy so can't see my lotting letter. No confusion here. Guess I'll know when the check comes.
