    Re: Refusals are not fun !

    I don't think you can "house" that young of a rat pup - they need their momma to survive.

    Unless of course they are weaned but I didn't think you were talking about that old of a rat pup.

    Not sure what you would need for a pup. I think they would still need a mother/milk. We rarely have refusal in our young ones, so when they do, its usually just a wasted rodent for us. Unless somebody else hasn't eaten yet. . How big is your tank? You should most definately have 2 hides.

    They are the 12 quart IRIS tubs, similar to the ones RBI provides. I will get another hide for him today then.
