Your Favorite Rats

I'm sure this doesn't apply to everyone, but I know myself and a few others at least have a healthy appreciation of how cute these little buggers can be. I sell the cutest ones as pets because it seems a waste to use them as feeders.

Anyway, I'd like to see your favorite rats (that belong to you).

I'll start off with this male that I adore. He's a tan/fawn rex dumbo, and his fur is super soft. :D

He recently sired this litter for me:

I am super stoked about the two mink babies.

He is super cute! I will have to get a picture of my blue females as they are to die for!

One's that my snakes eat. :P

Aldebono, I'd love to see your blue girls...... my favorite rats are blue dumbos. I'd love very much to get a hold of a nice group of blues for breeding here too. I'm also in FL and have had my feelers out for quite awhile now. Willing to drive quite far for nice additions here. Wolfy is fairly close to me and has recently added some blues to her group, my fingers are crossed that they do well for her!

This is one of my favorite ever rats that I got a few years ago from a feeder breeder in CA at one of the reptile shows there, have had my fingers crossed ever since that I can eventually wind up with more just like this one. Personality plus!!!

Love that picture, looks like your rat is trying to find a good novel to curl up with. :D

I simply adore my rats. They are two males that are BFFs named Lucky and Charlie. Here's Lucky's story and here's Charlie's story in case you're interested lol. They are both very sweet. Lucky thinks I'm his momma so he's always waiting at the door of his cage when I get home, Charlie is a little more reserved but just as sweet.
Here's Lucky, probably like 2 months ago.

Here's Lucky and Charlie snuggling, keeping eachother safe from the scary vacuum. :rolleyes:

And this is usually what they look like when I walk in the room and turn the light on lol.

My little Manx is definitely my favorite. He is such a sweet boy and loooves giving kisses!
As a baby...(his eyes were barely starting to open)

One of the gray babies is older now, and I am definitely holding her back. She looks blueish, but maybe mink?
