Hi,



The pics of what I saw last night would have been an even layer of wood chips covering the babies. Pretty boring. I took some nice pics today and I will post later. Off to church right now. The babies born on the 26th now have color to there bodies. The ones with no color, they are totally pink mean they could be albinos? Or even just one solid color? Anyway, I have at least 5 or 6 hooded ones. And yes we are enjoying the rats. We just love working with any animal and take a lot of pride in doing it right. I don't think the businesses selling rats have anything to worry about. We are just so happy to be in control of our own rat production. I hated dealing with frozen rats. It was a pain in the azz. Anyone on here knows what I mean if they think back to when they started to breed their own food source as well. I am not going to miss that quarterly phone call with my credit card in hand. And then preying that they send me the rats on the heavy end of their weight charts which they never did. I always got the lower end of the weights on the charted index. Good riddance frozen rat breeders. I never understood how you could get frozen rats to breed anyway. What a weird breed of rat....LOL.
