Thank you, and mostly worried because Patches was stressed and picked on from the father (who has since been removed) which I think sent her into early labor and it concerned me. But I have been watching her and so far she is doing good. So I cross my fingers that she continues this. I will be...

My rat Patches just had babies. I am new to babies and litters etc (my other rat mom Lightning had her babies last thursday), and my question is if this momma does not do well with babies, will the other mama possibly accept them as hers? How would I introduce them, and should I worry that...

I took her to the vet this morning, he said all seemed pretty well aside from the abnormality of her having 2 babies last weekend, getting that injection and nothing happening then today having 13 babies. He gave me some powder to mix with water to feed the babies if mama is not feeding them. I...

Alright so my one rat had an oops litter. From the beginning. Last weekend she had 2 babies whom died. But she still looked extremely pregnant. I took her in, fearing she was having complications. They did not see anything baby-wise but did notice something. They gave her oxy injection to push...

Hey everyone, new here. I have posted in intros already :) So this evening I noticed my one male biting and pulling at one of my females. I had introduced them and they've been getting along quite well until tonight. I have had the male for about a week tomorrow, and the females 2 days so far...

They are currently in this https://www.petsmart.com/small-pet/cages-habitats-and-hutches/all-living-things-multi-level-small-animal-cage-21573.html?cgid=600201 and right now I am using sun seed brand aspen shredded bedding as well as the fleece covers for the ladders. Simon, the newest guy, is...

The other one is a boy! He's definitely a lot younger but I got to look better yesterday and he def has balls :p And hes a little timid cuddler. He isn't as active when I hold him as my other one is. Also, I got them a new cage, similar to the critter nation but from petsmart (all living things...

Yep he’s definitely a boy. He’s got balls for days lmao! I just got him a friend because he was alone, but I’m worried this one may be a girl. We checked and looked a little like a boy but this ones definitely younger and a bit more timid. But they are getting along great! So that’s a plus lol

Im thinking the boy I got is fairly young, he won't sit still except when he is in his cage sleeping. Although, I just got him today, so we will see how he does in the next couple days adjusting but he definitely loves climbing all over me. :D Hes a small sized rat as it is (there was an option...

Hello everybody! I am from the Erie, PA area and a new rat mommy to unfortunately 1 lonesome male rat. As of right now he has no name. I had hoped to get a pair, but there were no other males available. I've always wanted a rat as a pet and finally glad to have one! Can I still get another male...
