It isn't too hard for me to feed the babies, but the breeder females and males I am definitely attached to. I have already culled the problem mothers and overbearing males and the screamers and biters. Now all I am left with are really good-natured awesome rats. It is going to be very hard when I have to consolidate my breeders for the move. I will likely end up giving them away to local feeder breeders who I know will take good care of them (You know who you are ladies!).

However, the whole reason I started breeding rats is because I know how they were treated before becoming food. I know mine are clean, healthy, happy, well fed and well loved.
