Baby rat pics---interesting litter.

[Seneschal]

Well, a female I brought home ended up being preggo when I got her (babies in the QT cage, onoes!) and 13 babies popped out. Yes, 13! I was surprised to see the variety that my normal gray rat threw...Apparently she's het for albino, het for hooded, and het for dumbo! (Homo for psychotic climbing and hanging upside down from the top of the cage though, as are all her babies!)

My camera's on the fritz so I used my webcam to get pics of them in a spare 10-gal. Note: I do NOT keep them in that...I keep them in a well ventilated 3 level cage on carefresh bedding, feeding mazuri 16F...on my screened porch. XD These are spoiled feeders. (Alas, I rue the day I got the wheel; none of them use it!)

Anywho, PICS!

Note the mommy, who decided to take a HUGE CHUNK outta my hand for cleaning out the cage a couple weeks back...XD I'd rather all my snakes bite me at once than that one rat. Ouch; there's a scar even! But on the other hand she's a fantastic mommy. :3






One of the dumbos!! A little boy!


Nother dumbo! A funky albino dumbo tan-ish girl who doesn't like me. XD


Cue the d'awwws.

End!

LOL, dumbos are so precious! Congrats, and dont worry about the wheel. When one tries it out, they will all want to do it.
