Albino(lab) rats VS Fancy Rats

[amg20102006]

Hi i was wondering if there is any litter size difference between the albino(lab) rat and the fancy rat?

[Shelby]

Lab rats typically have larger litters.

But.. white rats are boring.. and my fancy rats typically have between 10-15 babies every month. Isn't that enough?

well im breeding them for a guy 45 minutes away from me so id ont no because he supplys his local people but thank you for responding I very aprreciate it.also do lab rats get bigger than fancy rats?

[Shelby]

They're the same size.

I plan on keeping about 4.14 to 3.10 rats i will be breeding them for the local and some people away from me. what is the best way to cycle them?

[amg20102006]

sorry i meant 3.14 or 2.10

[Shelby]

Cycle? Just keep one male with however many females all the time.

[amg20102006]

ok how many females can i keep with one male in a 20 gallon long? a 40 gallon breeder? and a 10 gallon tank?

[Shelby]

Um.. I don't use tanks. I wouldn't use a 10 other than for raising weanlings.

A 20.. probably a pair, maybe a trio.

A 40.. 1.4 maybe 1.5.

if you dont use tanks then what do you use?
