As some of you know, I moved out to the country in a house and I had to part with my beloved snakes due to not being allowed to have them because of the rules in my lease. I find myself rather lonely and empty since my I parted ways with my snakes. I would really like to get two female rats as pets. Now, my question is, should I get them as full grown adults or should I get younger rats? I know that they do better in pairs because they are really very social creatures. They would be pampered and spoiled and have a very good life. I just think baby rats are so cute and I would really love to get them as youngsters but I will go with the advice from others here if they tell me otherwise. Thanks for your time and your input.
