wild rats

Hello everyone, First of all, sorry for my english level, i'm new here and I live in Spain, so probably my english is not as good as yours. I'm here for telling you our situation: on May 5 I found two baby wild rats, that they were being attacked by ants, so I decided to rescue them and start...

Hi there! I'm new to this site but not new to rats. I currently own 11 rats that are all happy and healthy. My landlord has had someone come in to remove some garbage bins outside and in the process they found 4 baby rats. In the process they accidentally killed the mother. They look to be...

So we had a rat show up a few months ago ( we've never had rats around before) been living in our dry well. Said rat went missing for a week or so. But has reappeared in our chicken coop. Our hens don't care. Well to my surprise this morning there was 2 heads staring at me. Momma ( we thought...

Hi guys! We have just gotten our first rescue, three wonderful girls to add to our already existing pair. We have already consulted all the available info on introductions and came up with a plan (a bit later in this post), but today's event put everything into question and frankly, threw me a...

I am looking to re-home a wild baby male rat, he seems to be around 4-5 weeks old. My husband found him at work, the mother rat was nowhere to be seen, we believe she is dead since the work area has rat poison and traps. We just couldn't leave him there knowing that when he grows up he'll most...

Hi all, apologizes if I have posted this in the wrong section. So, two days ago, I found a nest of wild baby rats. I'm sure there were six, but I think one of the dog's got two of them, so I managed to save 4. One of the parents got eaten by a snake, not sure if either the cat or one of the...

Hello. I got serious and a bit curious problem. My rats always have a walk in my flat. I thought that it is safe, but one day my rats find a way to "the paradise under my shower". Yesterday i came home and saw that i have not only 2 rats, but 8. So, now i have 6 hybrid rats. What to do? What...
