Cannibalism in rats?

[KMG]

How would you attach a rodent bottle to a cardboard box?

You're brave keeping them in a cardboard box. My wife would never let me hear the end of it if they got out.

If this is something you do often I would invest in the proper equipment to do it. Just a little cage and at least a water bottle. That will make the entire process better for you and them.

Something like this is what I'm thinking.

And this would hang easy to give water without a mess.

As to why it happened? You got me. I had a rabbit growing up that every time she had babies she would kill them and eat the top of their heads.
