Saada, of course, played football with it, as they do, and dragged it off into the aspen. Not terribly sensible. Today I had a brainwave. Lino. A piece about 18" x 18". She favours her exo-terra hide in her cool end, so it was a case of move plants and driftwood, move hide, pick up Saada with one hand, smooth substrate, slip lino on top of substrate, replace hide on top of lino, and replace Saada, who naturally went back into her hide. I presented the rat at the mouth of her hide. Grab and coil. When she'd eaten I lifted the hide, slipped the lino from underneath her, put her set up back to rights, sprayed and wiped the lino with F10 solution, ready for next time ... why didn't I ever think of that before? And one of those dog/cat feeding mats would work just as well.[:)] [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature.
