    Re: A Couple Rat Breeding/Keeping Questions

    I am not sure what to say about keeping two males together. But as far as keeping moms and babies in with males I have done both ways. I have seperated the prego's and tried leaving them in with the males. I have had 100% success rate both ways thus far but that isn't saying much since I have had about 7 litters seperated and only one that I left in. But with the one I left in I have not seen any problems infact I even seen the other female in that tub licking one of the moms babies clean. So it seems to me that if the females are comfortable with the other females and males and they all get along the communal breeding is the way to go if you want a high production rate being as the moms that just delivered can get pregnant the same night they deliver. To seperate once pregnant can mean a female will be out of commision for atleast a month give or take a week or so till she can even be put back in with a male to get pregnant again.
