Q please................the 5th letter guess

[luckies4me]

Oh No! The guesses are going to fly in now!

I just noticed that there was a mistake in the puzzle, how it is written. My friend wrote it and I got it from her site, I didn't want to go back and change the whole thing and fix it after we had started already.


Hairless rats need to eat more o-ten to -ee- warm. A normal rat needs a well -alan-ed diet o- -rains, seeds, and a -rotein sour-e. Hairless rats eat more o- it. Also, althou-h not -ro-en, a hi-her sour-e o- -rotein seems to -ene-it their health.
--nerall-, a hi-h -rotein, non~aller-eni- do- -i--le or -at -i--le -an -e added into the diet will meet these needs. I -eed
m- hairless rats -at -how, seeds, -asta and oats twi-e a da-. -urred rats require a do- -i--le with a lower -rotein ratio.

Karen guessed the puzzle correctly, however, she wishes to pass it on to the next highest scorer.

Since there were guesses made before you sent the phrase guess, I am going to add those up right now and let you all know who the highest scorer is. Be right back........

Ok here is what the puzzle looked like with the last guesses:

Hairless rats need to eat more o-ten to -eep warm. A normal rat needs a well

balan-ed diet o- -rains, seeds, and a protein sour-e. Hairless rats eat more o- it.

Also, althou-h not pro-en, a hi-her sour-e o- protein seems to bene-it their health.
-enerall-, a hi-h protein, non~aller-eni- do- -ibble or -at -ibble -an be added into the

diet will meet these needs. I -eed
m- hairless rats -at -how, seeds, pasta and oats twi-e a da-. -urred rats require a

do- -ibble with a lower protein ratio.

The second highest person would be AmyLovesMisty, however since she is so young and is most likely in school all day and a puzzle is a big responsibilty, I will let her chose whether she wants to host or not. I don't know if she will come back to read this anyway, we will see.

If she doesn't, it would be passed to AmberLee.


Here is the complete puzzle:

Hairless rats need to eat more often to keep warm. A normal rat needs a well

balanced diet of grains, seeds, and a protein source. Hairless rats eat more of it.

Also, although not proven, a higher source of protein seems to benefit their

health. Generally, a high protein, non-allergenic dog kibble or cat kibble can be

added into the diet will meet these needs. I feed my hairless rats cat chow,

seeds, pasta and oats twice a day. Furred rats require a dog kibble with a lower

protein ratio.
