I'm buying some cages with my tax return; if I give a texas rat a 3' high cage, will it use the extra height versus 18"? It'll be going on top of a stack of 4x2x1' APs holding some king rats (which seem totally uninterested in climbing so far). As a juvy, mine seems ot love climbing, but he's still a juvy, only 3' or so and less than 300 grams.


Kind of slow growing as he goes off feed for the late fall through early spring time of year. Eats like a pig during summer/early fall though.
