I'm so excited!

We have a beige/cream hooded male. The last time Chance produced a cream hooded, she died (the whole litter died), but these babies seem to be doing really well. I'm really hoping this one makes it. I was hoping for a cream hooded from her this time around and I got my wish.

Chance is an Agouti Hooded. She was bred with a Berkshire. Initial count was 12 but we fed some off. They were born October 1st.

The female babies consist of 2 Agouti Hoodeds, 2 Black Hoodeds, 2 Albino, and one Berkshire. The males consist of 2 Albinos, and 1 Cream Hooded. We are keeping the male cream hooded and one agouti hooded female. I'm so excited about the little boy though.

Good luck to you! Post some pictures so we can see your new babies.

We are not sure which of the agouti hoodeds we should keep. We like the darker one because she has a J on her back, but we like the other one because she is a nice light brown.

You can have the one in the middle and I want the other 2

Looks more like a very cute little Fawn Hooded! Fawn's tend to have a reddish tent, while beige has a creamier base. He's a for sure keeper!

While both are adorable, I'm rather partial to the female Agouti on the far left.

The cream hooded boy is all mine! I was hoping a cream hooded would show up. I could breed her to the same male in the future if you want and I can try for another cream hooded for you.

I'm going to get a picture of the whole litter so you can see what they all look like. And it gives me an excuse to take pictures of cute rats!

Whoops! Miscounted. We actually only have two boys. One albino, and the cream/fawn hooded.

Males on the left, females on the right.


All the girls.


Little boys.

lol thats fine, like I told you Im not really that picky right now

Ok you posted pictures the same time I posted, I will circle the females I want

The fawn/cream hooded looks more cream in real life. He doesn't look as red. Not sure why he's showing up red in the pictures. Maybe its because the lighting in the room has a yellowish tint and its messing up the color in the picture.

All rats that live here with pet status (all breeders have pet status) must have names. We just decided on names for the two holdbacks. The agouti with the j on her back is named J. She will eventually become Ray's roommate. Ray is her half sister. And they will also be joined by Ally, Ray's adopted sister. The little boy is named Vegas. Since his father's name is Hampton (which is a place) and his mother is named Chance, we decided we would combine the two and came up with Vegas.
