I have a 1.4 and 1.3 mostly because I went from three breeding groups to two and wanted to still have decent production. Now I only have three tanks to keep watch of, which is nice.
I've haven't noticed any fighting in my grow up tank (which has weaners all the way to adults) but it does look like some of the females may be pregnant. I haven't been feeding those just in case. Is this likely or are they just getting well fed?
Oh yeah, another food question: I just toss scoops in to the tubs and when I've cleaned or taken a look around underneath the substrate I've noticed a ton of food laying down there. Do the rats know its there and are they able to get at it? Or is it basically lost? Substrate is kiln dried pine only 1.5-2in thick, feeding hog feed mixed with some bird seed which is mostly millet and sunflower seeds and all that.
