Update and rescue baby pics

OK so the bigger ones are the older ones they all seem to be black or fawn color. And the other baby's just opened there eyes yesterday and are all doing good. I have a potential home set up for one of the little girls and will be meeting with her this week to see if she would be a good home.

They are so cute. The other two momma's are doing good as well. And the litter born the day I brought them home is doing good but my girl Blue is Bing protected even more than she was with her own so I figured I'd leave her be till they get bigger

Just so you know, baby girls stay with mom until at least 6 weeks old ...... and babies need to go in same sex pairs or groups because babies need another baby to play with, and being taken away from mom and siblings is very stressful and it helps to have at least 1 sibling to go with. btw, babies need to be at least 8 weeks (10 weeks is better) before they can be gradually introed to a rat over 12 weeks in age
(info on intro steps is in the behaviour section)

Screening is hard imo http://www.ratshackforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23041

I agree, I would make sure the babies go in twos. The babies really need another baby or two to help them cope and learn social skills. It makes them become good adults.

Thanks guys

They are so sweet and you must be extremely busy caring for and socializing so very many ratties

Very. But I have help. My husband and five kids play with and hold them just as much as I do. And I use a old play pin to let the kids sit in and let the rats run and play.
