Ok, so I was finally able to put Bingo in the condo with Rinky. They do not fight, but, Rinky just seems quiet & unplayful since. Does he just have to get used to it?
Thanks again
Noel
Ok, so yesterday I had Rinky on me and felt something on the side of his neck. It actually looks like a tick.....can they get ticks? If not, I'm thinking maybe he scratched himself or my other Dumbo, Bingo did it. What can I put on it to heal it?
Thanks in advance for the help

Rinky has a huge cage which I'll try to post at the end. Anyway, he is very good about using his litter box at the bottom of his 6 story cage. But recently he started peeing on his shelves. At first I thought it was because I had Bingo's cage next to his. See Bingo is not old enough to go in the...
Ok, so I have fleece lining Rinky & Bingo's shelves because it was suggested. Problem is they nibble on it & put holes thru it. Doesn't sound safe, is it? If not, what else can I use
Thanks
I got another rat, Bingo, on Wednesday. He is the tiniest thing! Must be only 4 weeks old. Anyway, I thought I might have a problem introducing him to Rinky who's about 6 months old. I put them in the playpen & was pleasantly surprised. Rinky started kissing Bingo & after that Bingo just kept...
I've posted before about my rat, Rinky, being a very fussy eater. Now he won't eat the peas & corn unless I hand feed him. He doesn't like much else. I've tried potato skins, bean sprouts, Romain lettuce mix, curly kale, banana, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, tomato, string beans, eggs...
Hello! It's Noel, Rinky's Mom! I have had my boy Rinky for about 1 month now. He eats peas, cherrios & carrots once in a while. He likes his yogurt drop treats & occasional corn and carrot. I've tried numerous times to introduce BlackBerry, strawberries, kale, bean sprouts, broccoli and...
I want to start traing my Dumbo, Rinky. I have read you can train them by rewarding them with a treat. I have yogurt strawberry drops & vanilla yogurt covered raisins. My question is what other kind of treats might he like & is good to give him?
Thanks
Noel
It's Noel , Rinky's mom, again. Ok this started yesterday. Rinky was out all day in his play space. Nothing unusual happened, but he started making this sound. It sounded like a bird chirping. Now I have had him out all day and he is doing it again. I held him, talked softly to him & pet him...
Hi everybody! This is Rinky's mom, Noel. Can anyone tell me if I have to cook broccoli before giving it to my rat, Rinky? Also, while I'm here, he seems to be a fussy little eater! Example, when I give him spinach, he actually takes it out of his food bowl to get the things on the bottom and...
Hi everyone! I'm new to being a Mom to a rat! I've had him for 10 days now & I'm totally in love! And before someone says it, yes I'm getting another one. Just have to wait a bit. Anyway Rinky ( thats my baby rat), lets me know when he's hungry by either peering out thru the bars of his cage &...
