    Adorable rat, by the way. I wish my girls would even let me hold them.

    Thanks.

    Props if you know the band on my shirt. :gj:

    All of our pet rats are completely socialized. While we are home they have free range over the house, although they are rarely more than 3 feet away from us. They are worse than a puppy! They all know thier names and basic commands. A couple know more advanced tricks such as walking down my arm and giving the cashier money at the McDonald's drive thru and bringing thier kids ice cream cones or cookies back.

    Thats weird that yours won't let you hold them, unless they are adults that have never been handled thier whole lives. Even our feeders will come up and beg for attention whenever we walk by.

    FWIW, females tend to be a lot more indepenent than males.

    Yep, adults. :hmm: I'm just not sure what to do with them now. I already know I'm going to have to purchase other females to breed because I refuse to breed aggressive/skiddish rats. It's just disappointing because I was told they were friendly and clearly they have NOT been handled at all.
