    That little hooded guy is cute! Some of the babies look almost gradient. Their color darkens as it goes down.
    Grats on the nice sized litter!

    i would definately keep those breeders . it looks like you have several siamese , some himilayans and possibly a siamese hooded . i might be wrong on the hooded , but thats what it looks like to me . i want that one .


    larry suttle , joanna or becky would probably be better informed than i am . i'd wait for one of them to chime in to be sure .

    are they something special?? The two i bred both had like little brown noses.


    I think I would have a hard time feeding off these rat's babies if they keep coming out like this...

    Re: Really interesting litter! (to me..)DUW

    if they have little brown noses , they are himilayans and that would explain the babies looking like they do . both himilayans and siamese(the super form of himilayan) are considered fancy rats although i dont think they are any more rare than any other fancy . the hooded one on the other hand if it is a hooded siamese as i believe it is , would be a real nice addition to any breeding colony .

    Re: Really interesting litter! (to me..)DUW

    Thats pretty neat So is it the color that makes it a siamese? I found the himi and the siamese online, but no such thing as a hooded siamese - that guy really threw me off because, well, he was hooded and nobody else was lol. Either way they are oh so cute.

    Re: Really interesting litter! (to me..)DUW

    i am almost possitive that hooded siamese are possible. Most colors are independent of pattern as far as i know. You can have black hooded, beige hooded, blue hooded, i dont see any reason if you made the right crosses you couldnt make a siamese. I might be wrong though.

    Re: Really interesting litter! (to me..)DUW

    the darker ones are the siamese . they will lighten as they grow and end up with a dark nose , slightly dark ears and a dark rear end . the himilayans will do the same but to a lessere extent . the hooded one if it is what i think it is , i'm not sure what it will look like when it gets older . i am not absolutely sure on the hooded one as i've never seen or heard of one , but anything is possible .

    heres a pic of a siamese at about 6 weeks .
