Hi All,
Just got a call from a friend who recently had a litter of rats. The rats were born late October so they are very young still. She went away and while someone else was looking after her rats they let the boys out with the girls and now one of the baby girls is pregnant from her brother. She just had the babies a few days ago (11).
What are the ramifications of sibling parents? Health issues, behavioural issues lifespan and so on?
I want to help her out with these rats but i don't know what i am getting into.
Thanks,
Tara
