Huge litter!
One of my prego rats gave birth yesterday to our biggest litter yet! She had 23 babies! I was shocked! Before this our largest litter was 15. She seems to be feeding them all just fine too!
What were your biggest litters?

I had one pore ole momma spit out 37 pups....I had to put another female in with her to help take care of all the babies....personally would have prefered a smaller litter b/c the larger the litter, it seems, the smaller/scrawnier the pups

Re: Huge litter!
I just had 2 moms drop 15 babies each. Their my biggest litters.
A virgin female just dropped a litter of 13. Glad she did good her first time

I see the number "23" and my mind immediately goes to, "how long could that keep my BPs' bellies happy?" Congrats on the big litter!

Re: Huge litter!
Our rats have been doing great for us this year. We keep our breeders and treat them as pets, so we try not to over breed them, but they have been keeping a great supply of feeders available for us. It seems like they are giving us one big litter after another.

Also on this yea. I had 2 litters of 15 each and a litter of 7 all on the same day. So i took 2 from each litter so the mom with 7 ended up with 11 and the ones with 15 ended up with 13. Doesnt make much of a diff i dont think but at least its 2 less she has to feed lol

Re: Huge litter!
my mommas gave me 17 and 10 this time. do u all just keep the males in there with them. i had my male in the tank them cause at first the one momma was supposed to be a feeder but my bp didnt want it and it has now became another breeder since im getting 2 more bp on thursday (pastel,normal ) so gotta keep up on the rats they cost too much at local breeders. the female that had 10 was a virgin and the other female was a 2nd time momma so each time they get pregnant they have more and more each litter.
