Something is going on, but I'm not sure what. I have 4 tubs of rats going right now. 3 rats from 2 different tubs have come up with these wounds about the head and neck. It is the male in one tank, and the male and one female in another tank. Both tanks have other rats that do not seems to be effected. The rats with the wounds only appear to have wounds about the head and neck area. They look like infected flea bites to me, but I do not see any fleas, and none of the other rats in those tubs are showing symptoms. I'd say a bully, but it is happening in two different tubs.....so two bullies with exactly the same wound pattern occuring in two different tubs?
I tried to take pics, but it was hard to get a good pic. Mostly you can feel the raised scabby areas more than see them, but this pic shows some of it on one of the males.
What do you think?
