I'd be hard pressed to put even 1.1 in there, especially with babies....maybe good enough for a mom and babies.
Okay, I see. Can I keep rats in a plastic tub or something? Or will they chew through it? I mean, I can make a couple of holes on the top for ventilation and put a brick on top of it to make it escape-proof. If this is possible, how many quarts is good for 1.4? Also the growing cage, which will contain more rats. 66 quarts?
