Well the backstory to this is I purchased 1.2 rats about a month ago. 1 of the females was knocked up when I got her and spit out all dumbos. My final goal as long as I dont get any more snakes is 5.20 breeding colony. So I am just really trying to figure out the social situation of rats. I know I accidentely got a male mixed up with some mice I baught a while ago and put 2 in the same tank after my few of my snakes refused them. Next day one was torn apart in a corner obviously dead. I just would like to keep this from happening since id rather them be food than trash.
