  1. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    I was just wondering how many of you spay/neuter your rats, and do you personally reccommend it? The research I've done seems to come up split on wether or not it's a good idea. Some claim that it reduces the chances of cancer in females, but has no real effect on males except to possibly cut...

  7. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    Hey, I have a silly question :frypan: (hope it wasn't answered before) I read that you shouldn't get a single rat, always at least two of them. Having birds I know that the more birds you have the harder it is to tame them, even with just two it's really hard. Is that the same with rats...

  9. Mouse & Rat Discussion
    In an ideal world every rat would live with another in a really big cage and would have three or more hours play time a day out of the cage. Plus they would all be neutered/spayed when young to help avoid cancer and whatever. This is not an ideal world, and such operations are expensive, even...

    I bought a mouse on my birthday that turned out to be a male while my other two were female. (haha, wow I'm smart). Anyway, he kind of had a party and I think one of the girls is pregnant. I'm not sure what any of the earlier signs are, but she is acting much more tame than usual and she got a...
