I've had my albino girl for about a year now, she was about a year when I got her. She has given me two successful litters (although her first only consisted of two pups) and I want to retire her. She seems to be displaying some type of neurological issue by keeping her head cocked to one side... She has always been kind of mean, I've had many bites from her. Now that I'm ready to raise up a new breeder, what should I do with her? She is way too big to feed off, but I don't really want to keep her as a pet because she isn't very nice. My boyfriend suggested we release her as it's summer now, and she's nearing the end. I know it's illegal to release pets, but I'm not sure if a rat counts since they're native? I may set up a euthanasia chamber solely for her, as my BPs eat live. I was thinking maybe it would be nice for her to be in the wild for a bit before she goes, but I can't find any info on whether or not it's illegal.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
