I've been having one heck of a time breeding my rats. I've had them since December with no babies. I traded out my male about 4 weeks ago.
This litter was born Sunday evening. Coco is the sweetest rat I own. I managed to catch her labor only because I was concerned when her personality did a complete 180 (I've got bite marks to prove it) a few hours before delivery. She had 11 babies (one stillborn).
Coco's babies today:
And Chanel blessed me with 8 babies sometime during the night!
