If a baby cat is a Kitten...... doesnt that make a baby rat a ritten?:lol:

Nice looking black one Liamb.... the one in the last pic (the copper top) you should call Julia (Gillard)

I have some aguti's together, cant wait to see how they turn out. Love the aguti colour....

And blue (hint hint Ingie)

 

[Helikaon]

pretty terrible photos sorry

 

[Cold-B-Hearts]

[Helikaon]

[Cold-B-Hearts]

ok thanks i might get some in a few months or sooner
captain rat bag if you like agouti im selling a male and female berkshire agouti along with a black and white hooded male for 15

Manx? are they like the cats in that they can be born tailess or with a much shortened tail (or even full length)? I have almost an entire litter of rats pups with shortened tails - they get around as easily as the other litter they have been brought up with - they just have tails of various lengths. I'll have to do a test breed with the same dad to work out which of the two Mums it was and see if it happens again - it doesn't appear to be caused by injury, will get some pics..

Ah, a rat thread!

Funny to see lots of pictures of my rats' descendents and my information repeated in here :lol: Interesting to see who is using what methods and where some of my rats (a few generations down the track) have gone to!

I'll throw in a few pictures too

 

[ingie]

Those are great shots Sdaji!! love the arrow one haha.

The first day I joined the rat forum at the start of last year, I came across Sdaji's photos of his amazing rats including the dalmatians and blues!! I then started learning about how everything works, and started working towards copying Sdaji's famous dalmatians hehe. It took me a year and a half but I finally got there yay!

All my blues come from rats that Sdaji kindly sent me



Here are some new baby pics from current litters. They are all BEW but the black is starting to come through so much in a few of them that they will look hooded if I am not careful

And some random hooded blazes for cute factor:

 

[Cold-B-Hearts]

This female looked normal untill I got her home from David's within a couple of days she got fat and a week or two later 7 more rat bubs (haha thanks David). One of my rats is looking big (shes looked like she is ready to explode for over a week now)She was looking fat before this girl even started getting her buldge. Could something of gone wrong internally ( this is her first litter. I can unload a pic tomorrow if she hasn't dropped anyway heres the bubs.

Dose that mean my line of blues basicly come from Sdaji aswell

I see a big blazed baby!

Relly :3 the third one from the top?
Whats the difference between wedged and blazed. I want the ones that look like lightning bolts :3

Yes their parents came from Sdaji I just put them together and hey presto blues!
A wedge is a blaze I just can't tell if it is a proper wedge shape or an irregular shape in that photo. Lightening blazes are pretty cute

 

[Cold-B-Hearts]

In a week I'm sure I'll have a better idea of what the babies will look like :3

No blazed. My other female had a litter of 12 she is younge and it's her first litter aswell

And these are the rats from the first post on this thread

 

[Venomous_RBB]

Hi Guys, got these ratties, unsure on colouring, would love to know
My Small Rats:
- 1 female champagne coloured hooded striped rat (Unsure on actual name of colour?)
- 2 female small rats, 1 male small rat and 1 large male rat all have this black hooded/striped marking? Again unsure on actual colour name?
- Champagne female rat?
- Unsure on this girl, this is one female small rat, black with 2 white front socks and a white belly? Unsure on name?

My Large Rats, I have 1 Male that looks like the Black Striped Back/Hooded ones and the 4 Females are Albino - White with Red Eyes and pink skin.

- Just thought I would add this one of my large female albino rat laying on my black striped back/hooded male. So cute

Cheers

Very dark pics BH92, I really cant make many of the colours out

Rats are so funny how they sleep..... I like it when they roll thier head forward and crash in a little ball :lol:

Or when they stack themselves in a pile.... pity the one(s) on the bottom

Liamb, I see you are using wood shavings? Is that Hysorb? I keep hearing you shouldnt, should, shouldnt, should when it comes to wood shavings and rats....

What do people think? yes, no or depends on brand?

I use it (cant find any at the moment) and breeders choice ($ :shock

 

[Cold-B-Hearts]

yea i just do a mix, breeder choice for odor and the shavings for the cheap factor.
it doesn't worry me if it effects the long term health of rats. they're breeder feeders and will be culled before they get to their old age dying stage anyway, saying that i buy it in the rodent section of pet city. so i presume its healthy for them.
(non of that was said in a cruel way, my rats short term health and happiness is a priority.)
WOOHOO my BEW (caring blue gene) is pregnant she has been in with a BEW male and blue male so here comes some nice babies only worry is she is very small around 200g. has anyone had experience breeding very Young rats?

The 2 bad things I have heard about wood shavings is the chemicals in it and the dust? Breeders choice is quite dusty too so it is really the chemicals that are a worry, the fact that the rats will ingest it, then of course, so will the snakes.
