Hi everyone,
I'm new at feeding live and have a question about the life stage of a rat fuzzy. My 10 year old son fell in love with one that I brought home to feed my largest female (yes, Mom is feeling major guilt right now). He is a cutie, solid black except for white feet and white tip on his tail and my son wants to keep it as a pet. After spending $18.00 a week on feeders, I started thinking we can grow it up to find out what sex it is, buy the opposite sex and start making our own.
My question is, is this stage "weaned" from Mom and eating rodent kibble? Will he be okay to grow up as a pet/breeder and survive without Mom's milk and just rodent food?
Thanks guys!
