Templeton, loki, toby, and dopey were the death of me for intros.
Intro's gone wild!
In march after the failed intros with them for the second time. I decided that if and once my 4 boys passed, I would try again. Toby left us in June 22, 2011, Dopey followed January 3rd, 2012, Templeton left on January 26 and my boy Loki February 1st.
After talking to jo... we decided to try the intros now while alpha is not established in my bigger group of mixed sex rats. With the loss of Templeton and Loki, they were the top two boys, now they are at a middle stage with no one in charge. The remaining two boys are neutered and the 7 girls are all spayed.
Bindi is a big girl already she dont need to puff up to be bigger lol
Algernon my pew boy, I am pretty sure he is templetons son, their builds are identical
Isis my beige hooded girl, puffy......
Finley(hairless) was so close to Toby and Dopey. My boy has to sleep alone now, since dopey passed he slept with him every day, i hate seeing him sleep alone.
Lokis ensure was left over so they had a treat
Mally my little blue girl, templeton and lokis sister.. She has always had problems but she has been worse since October. I dont see her being around much longer. She has a lump and I cannot operate on her, I dont think she will live.
Algernon's color has always been more of a silver white than white like my girls.
Algernon (templeton's son) Ludo (Loki's son) I look at these faces and their shapes are identical to my other boys.
I kept them short today. Mally get wheezy when stressed so I want to go easy on them. Not to mention they just lost two major players in their colony.
In all it looked good, not one was aggressive enough to out right attack, girls were more puffy than all the boys LOL and we shall see how it goes in the days coming on the table
