Umm...have you done much research on rats?

What caging are you going to use, what are you planning on feeding? Do you already have a vet and a vet fund lined up?

See we don't know what you know already and what you need to learn...so give us a bit of a background on this THEN we can advise you. Nothing like doing up a whole post on something and then OP posts "yeah I know all that"

Its Harlan Teklad 2014 Rodent Diet and the big ferret cage and yes there is a vet near by that deals with rats I find that not all the info I have been researching is correct so I thought I would ask u guys

Haha ya sorry for not posting what I know

They r 4 months old

Where are you getting your girls from?
CongRATulations, by the way!

Which ferret cage? With girls you will have to watch the bar spacing because some ladies are small enough to fit through 1 inch bar spacing found on most ferret cages.

A guy that knows alot about rats he pointed me to this group

And it is the cage he has them in already it looks like small spacing like hampster cage spacing

Well it seems like you have good food, two females, and what sounds like a fine cage. You seem all set for now!
Post pictures of the girls and their cage when you get them, and we'll help you out as you go.

Thanks guys

So did you get them?

Yup tablet died so didn't get to send pics of my two new cuties

The first day all they did was poop in the litter box now they r bringin food in there and ****ting everywhere anyone have any ideas

It may take a while for them to catch on. Every day pick up the poop and put it in the litter boxes. Put litter boxes where ever they seem to poop the most. Patience and persistence.

I've been doing that so far hope they catch on here r my fur babys waking up

They are super cute!! I have been at the litter training thing for about 6 months now and my rats do use their litter boxes but they also use everywhere else as well haha so the litter boxes everywhere thing makes sense to me My boys use their wheel to sleep in as well and that is it..my younger girls won't go near theirs and my older girls are the only ones that actually use it haha. Hopefully your babies will use theirs for sleeping and exercise.

They run in it all the time it is too cute they will run in it together side by side
