I lied. Here are pictures.

Now that Rufus is already looking better, I'm not as horrified by the scabs from Monday. Still, in case anybody is eating dinner, I'll stick the pictures in the extended entry:

Here he was Monday night:

And tonight. In real life he looks even better than in the picture. The scabs are drying up and falling right off.

Much better with the scabs. Good thing they are falling off. How's the new cage, guys? ~

Hi Rufus!! *waves*

What's that orange-y spot?

I think the orange is just the "buck grease" that is naturally on a male rat's skin. It shows up more in the photo than it does live.
