I have one. Bad Bart.




They're a bit less sociable than a rat. Most aren't biters, but they will almost all defend their house. I love Bart to death and I enjoy having him but he's mostly a pet to be observed. Yeah, I can drag him around and he wouldn't bite me but it makes him very nervous. If you're OK with that kind of pet they are great to have.

Bart eats Mazuri insectivore food, mealworms, occasional bits of meat, likes to chew any kind of bones, likes cooked vegetables and many raw fruits, and goes bonkers over pinkie mice. He grabs them out of my hand and runs into his house to eat them--I guess he's afraid he'll have to share.
