Rat Breeding question

I have bred mice for years and have gotten used to there smell and how often I need to clean to take care of the issue.

HOWEVER. I just started breeding rats in the last 6 months and it appears to me that they almost eat less than the mice and do not have as strong of an odor and don’t need to be cleaned as often. Is that true or am I just imagining that. I was curious what others have noticed that breed both mice and rats.

If this is truly that case I am contemplating almost doing away with breeding mice except for pinkie production an focus almost strictly on rats.

Allen
