Well I found a local breeder who was selling Small rats for $1 each. So I figured it would be cheaper to buy from him and euthanize them myself. My local shop sells F/t small rats for $3. I figured this way I knew exactly when they were put down and frozen.
Anyways I decided to buy 30 of them to have a little stock pile since the guy lived a little ways from me. When I got to my truck I was putting them from the box to a huge tote, as I counted I found out I paid for 30 but ended up with 32.

Long story short the kids talked me into keeping 2 of them as pets. Since I basically ended up with 2 free I said ok. We looked through the whole lot of them and found the two healthiest looking ones. We ended up with 1 male (no mistaking this as a male) and 1 Female ( i think she is a she atleast)

I haven't decided on if I will breed or not but for now these are just pets for the kids.
Here are some pictures. They would not sit still at all so I had to take a lot of pictures just to get these.
This is polar bear the male:



and our female Dolphin....She is greyish with a white belly
