Hey all new rat mom of 12 adorable babies. I know that rats are nocturnal so mostly active at night but boy they sure can sleep A LOT. I have 5 boys in one, 6 in another and one on her own in recovery. They can usually sleep the day away if I didn't come in every so often just to talk to them and check on them so they get use to hearing my voices and my scent. Is this normal or should I be encouraging them to move more? I take them out in pairs to run around the room for a bit in bursts when they are all active and awake. Just want to make sure I'm not missing something
