KYBOY KYBOY trapper Registered: 12/22/06 Posts: 3379 Loc: East, Kentucky	My rats have good glands in em' right now, but that can vary from state to state. they just pull out basically. When you skin the rat their close to the testicals on the male. Their white'ish colored and spongy. The testicals are more of a clear color and harder in texture. You can pull the glands out with your fingers....... _________________________ Take life by the throat, then choke it until it spits up what you want!

The Beav The Beav trapper Registered: 12/23/06 Posts: 779 Loc: Wisconsin	Just skin the rat and you will see the glands they lay between the hind legs and lay right on the suface just nip them off. But like I said you will have a hard time seeing them now but come spring they will fill up and be very easy to see.

don Wolf don Wolf trapper Registered: 12/22/06 Posts: 2712 Loc: evansville Indiana age 62	My rat glands are just about as big as a thumbnail this time of yr. The rats in this area start making glands in mid jan. I sold close to a 1/2 gal of the last yr. Started saving them when they are nice and plump.
