Hairless rats and mice get eye problems often. Wipe their eyelids off with a warm wet rag everytime they look bad. They aren't the best breeders either.

That is why I was out crossing them with some other mice. I will try to wipe their eyes. ANd see if that helps things. Thansk for the tips. I miss my Hairless rat. He was the coolest rat I had ever owned.
