Hew is a mismarked siamese (blazed on nose).... note the tan color as a baby

There are like 9 different varieties of rex that go from looking much like a standard, to short coat, patched, naked, curly, whispy, etc


Back to the OP: The trouble with breeding a pet store or feeder bin found "hairless" variety is not knowing the genetics & not knowing if you would run into lactation issues.

I'm not real sure why you are seeking to bred the hairless as feeders outside of just having a naked rat rather than a haired one, but I would laike to add to the already good chance of finding lactation issues, the hairless are notorious for having small litters.

Double rex hairless(patchwork) can breed together and the females can lactate.

I'm breeding double rex groups and doubles to single rex and doubles to regular hair.

The killer thing about double rex's are they look different about every molt they have.

This is one of my males...

And the following week, lol.

And now he looks like a Siamese, crazy! lol
