    Clean rats
    whats the cleanest type of rat you can get. I was told the african soft furred rats or dumbo rats tell what you think about that.;)

    Haha, your funny if you want a clean rat. Just change the bedding every 2-3 days instead of every week for cleaner rats.

    I had two male african soft furred rats at one point and they didn't smell at all. But if you want clean rats, just change the bedding more often and feed an appropriate food.

    Try getting about 20 in one tub.... definitely doesn't smell like roses.

    And as far as litter pan training, good luck. The males pee as they walk, and poop when they are nervous or scared and when they are full. We have a female that we can let roam around and she will not poop until back in her enclosure, but if you can figure out how to do it let us know. :gj:
