I caught a juvi black rat a couple of days ago. He was very active and therefore proceded to pick him up. After catching him i realized that he was a bit dehydrated (I have already taken care of that problem). I also noticed that his bottom jaw was screwed up. I thought he might have mouth rot, so now i had to keep him I couldn't just let him die.It seems he doesn't have mouth rot he was born with a way receded jaw. He obviously can eat since he lived this long, since he would have hatched much earlier this year. Any help on what and how to feed him would be much appreciated.
