I've never bred rats but I have bred dogs and goats! Haha usually this fat in they will miscary or Abort if that's what u wanna call it... Animals don't normally absorb a pregnancy this far along
 
Lol So she will have babies. No absorption! :)

Lol Petunia, you're hilarious! How many do you think she will have? :)

Edit:She is sleeping peacefully. :)

Oh my gosh I keep seeing new posts here and I'm like 'This will be it! They're here!' but nope..

Umm I'm also thinking 7 babies, but 5 girls 2 boys :) Definitely some PEWs.. Depends what Daddio looks like though.
 
Haha! We check on her and sometimes we feels the same. Like "Today is the day!" But nope! We still aren't sure she is pregnant so don't get your hopes up! :)

Dad is a total mystery! Lol
 
Yes. It is day 25. She seems healthy other than the big belly so we'll watch her. We'll keep watching her for a few more days and then we'll we probably start thinking of a vet visit! :)
 
Oh man...the wait continues! I say 6 babies 3 girls and 3 boys :) Come on snow girl, give us some babies tonight!!! I was starting to think tumor maybe but what the chances it would stop growing on day 25? haha really hoping for babies and no bad stuff :(

OH I don't know if it's a good idea to put this off any longer. I am thinking maybe she's got a tumor or a closed pyometra or something you may be able to fix, but not if you wait too long.

No babies so I think it's safe to say that she is not pregnant. We are going to the vet tonight. Thank you to everyone who helped us out in this journey with little Snow. It has been very educational and fun. Snow is acting very healthy and has bright eyes and a shiny coat so we are hoping for a clean bill of health from vet.
