I came home the other night to see that one of my rat moms went crazy. She did have 11 babies, but when I cleaned out the cage I could only see about 8 in pieces. The babies were over a week old. She had both food and water in the cage. I just fed her a few hours before I found the mess. I told a guy at work about it and he reccomended wet cat food. He said to just give them a teaspoon a little before, or right after they give birth, and they wont do this. I think he said that it works on mice and rats. Has anyone ever heard of this? Does it work? Should I keep her as a breeder, and try again, or just have her prepare to meet my big girl. As far as I know, this was her first litter. The babies looked healthy, and no runts. Thanx in advance for the advice.
