Default Rats are quite cute!

Sorry, our first litters and we have 17 babies. they are cuter than i imagined at this age





does anyone want any? I might end up selling these or keeping them, it's tough I'm not sure i can go the full distance with them and put them to the gas chamber. It's tricky because i'm mildly allergic to them

Some of them are dumbo's, and for colours/markings we THINK they are himalayans/or seal point siamese??

it's a pain being allergic to animals. If we clean those rats regularly, and i take a tablet each day it's not so bad for me... i'm a lot worse with cats and dogs, and no allergy tablet has fixed me with them so far. I am hoping to keep a small number of the rats, so hopefully the tablets keep working

My other half loves them But at least she can properly hold them

well i tryed a few things like piriton etc, but its not doing a thing, i struggle to feed the mice etc because they are near the rats. i come out in a big rash, my skin starts to peel, and i struggle to breath i really dont know why i am so allergic to them, but today i just had to put up with it and clean them it was a scene, if it wasnt me i would of laughed

hahaha, yeah the breathing bit sure hurts i bought myself a dust mask wondering if that would work but i've not used it yet, and it was more for any dust from the bedding sort of thing.

i don't come out in a rash, mainly just breathing and sneezing for me

i'm fine with the multi's though which is bizarre.

Here's one of the mum's and dad.

they're not quite ready to go yet, the oldest are two and a half weeks old

I'll let you know when they're finished with mum, if you're coming up this way again
