We have had our 2 male rats for over a month with no end to potty training in sight. There does not seem to be a pattern to where they poop. They poop everywhere. Every hammock, corner and spot they can find. I am not sure if they actually poop in the 2 yesterdays news litter boxes we have. We have one litter box high and one low. I do see them in the litter box. There is a pee rock that looks peed on. Which is encouraging. Even with daily pickup and a couple dirty poos in the litter box each time. Also tried leaving the litter box extra stinky a couple of week in a row. They seem to have no problem laying in poop. Ugg. Any thoughts. I don't over clean though. Only once a week big clean.
I tried switching out the bedding to something else for a couple weeks. The litter has constantly been the same. Maybe they don't like the feel of the litter? I am guessing they might just be uninterested in litter training. For those that do the "treat" training method. How in the world do you see them pooping? Like do you shove your entire head in the cage to try and see behind them? Lol.
