Arrow African Pouched Rat Registry

There is now a database of Pouched Rats (c.gambianus & c.emini only) kept in the UK.

Please could you help us to complete the Registry by letting us know of any keepers or breeders you may know of.

Alternatively, keepers can contact us via the website:

www.africanpouchedrat.com


Many thanks

Good luck with your new Pouchie Registry

Nice to see people looking forward & keeping track of an animlas genetic history & maintaining a healthy gene pool.

Maybe someone could so something similar for Skunks in the UK

Thanks Joe, yes Matt just got to add your email address but I am flipping between the new APRR website and the EKF forum! eek!

And Ken, couldnt agree more. Big job that though, hence we want to start recording pouchies nice and early while there aren't many breeders.

I mean, to figure out a registry for the skunks over here, it would take someone who is a bit of a perfectionist, who has experience in a bit of detective work (bit of a 'miss marple'), researching etc... oh! what about an ex BBC researcher?!

Bit of a tall order to find someone with all those skills dont ya think?? I assume the person would also need lots of spare time to dedicate to such a mammoth task

aha! yes! but if such a person say, raised baby birds for example, when said baby birds 'flew the nest' that person would surely be at a loose end? What with raising baby birds being so time consuming and all...
