One does... Remi but we have a remi already so we are calling him Rem. The other two need names so feel free to name them :)
 
OMG.. just saw this... :rant: I can't offer much advice as I have never dealt with anything even remotely similar, but jeez... I cannot tell you how HAPPY I am that these boys are now with you. I bet they will become your best cuddly friends the second they will understand how different their lives are gonna be from now on...

Thank you for taking them in! They're in very good hands now! :hugs:
 
We have had the boys for a few weeks now. They have gotten back to their rat weight. Little boy is huge now :) and his hair is finally coming back in. This is why you dont let children have pets and not pay attention to them..

They are so lucky to have made their way into your capable hands. Poor darlings. I look forward to watching them thrive in your good care. P.S. Your nails are always so gorgeous...
 
All i did was feed them :) put revo on them and that is it. It is amazing what happens when you feed an animal who would of thunk it? :) note sarcasm. I am just glad it was just lack of a healthy diet and he is ok. I am curious to see how they turn out in a few weeks.

Their hair is really coarse and not shiney at all. Do you think this would be a good time for some olive oil? I thought that help with coats.
 
I think healthy, shiny coats comes from the inside. Once their bodies get used to some proper nutrition, I'm sure their fur will improve in condition. I'm glad this seems to be an easy fix! I'll bet in 6 months he'll be unrecognizable.

Curley used to need some olive oil, but he was a rex and had some dry patches, but he didn't look much different from these guys - except he had hair :wink:
 
They already are looking so much better. <3 Can't wait to see how they improve even more.
 
I am doing intros with the boys with my other boys. So i have new pictures.

This is skin and bones... he is such a chunk and now has almost all his hair back.

The bareback black and white on in the back is one of the 3.

I am introducing them to other rats. 7 is one group and one loner boy so it will make a group of 11 boys. Wish us luck!
 
Remmy the skin and bones one is quite the male humper. Poor ryker seems to get most of his humping. Must be something about those big old grumpy black hooded rats that tickles his fancy other than that they seem to be going well. No real aggression from any of them and they have been in the play pen for 24 hours now. I am just leaving them in there for a bit.... till I feel motived to clean the cage up really good and when I see them cuddling more. So far most are except for ryker.

He is looking like a normal rat now. Just moved into the cage with my others. A new group of 10 boys.
