Finally more dwarfs

[snakesRkewl]

I have been worried I'd lost my dwarf line since my older dwarf male doesn't seem to be getting his big girls preggo, and then along comes this beauty.
There is 2 more possible dwarfs in this litter.
The mom and dad are obviously hets, I really should have been keeping better records

He is pictured with normal size siblings

Himalayan Velveteen coat dwarf male and normal size Velveteen female

It's amazing how dark their butts are, lol

With a black Velveteen coat sib

That's a new one to me! I didn't even know dwarf rats existed! Excellent!

I've made them for a little over a year now, just for fun mostly.



My oldest male when he was younger...

[Rhasputin]

Aww. I want one!

[snakesRkewl]

I happily share my genetics, but peeps have to come my way

This boy turns out to be a double rex/velveteen coat as he's losing his coat and looks like a lil alien rat now, haha.
He'll make me a ton of curly coat dwarfs hopefully

[Rhasputin]

AWWWWwwwWWWWwwww!

Where are you? I hope you're at least in the US, LOL!

Oh jeebus!
My friend in TN has some, but none for sale right now.

The breeding was a Siamese Velveteen coat male(Big white boy in this thread) to a Black Berkshire Rex coat female.
All of my rats make Siamese and Blue but what is going on with this dwarf male

The sibling looks like a normal double(patchwork) Siamese rat, but him?

Wow, I have to find someone around here selling more than feeder rats and plain white.
