I'm starting a hairless project myself. I had one colony randomly throw me two hairless males. I fed off the male from that colony and dropped one of the hairless males back in with the moms, but they started chewing him up. I pulled him back out and split the two hairless males up and got 4 new females to introduce to them on Saturday. So far, they seem to be getting along better. The one male has been bit a couple times by these females too, so either he's gettin' the job done or the ladies just don't like him... So, hopefully I'll have some more hairless babies coming in the next couple months...
Weird.. I have some females that haven't been breeding that should be... I'm not sure if it's the male that's the problem or what. Good luck with yours!

Let me know how your hairless breed, my male is a horn dog but I cant seem to get my
Female's (6) interested at all! Plus ive tried other males too! I think they are just getting to size though.
Jeez, hopefully I don't end up with a non-breeding hairless!

Hairless rats creep me out. The russian blue has a very pretty coat though. I cant wait to breed my own someday!
I don't blame you, they are pretty freaky haha. I love them though. Russian blues have been impossible to find around here, this one is actually the first I've seen in person! Same with the roan.

Where are you located? Some of those rats look related to mine. :P
