    My rats & mice

    Well i finally picked up my new cage for the rats....not fully furnished as yet...but they seem to really love it

    Cinders (hooded) & Champers


    New home


    And now the rats are out the mice have moved into their old home *L*. And they love all the room they have now....the mouse pups now have fur and are becoming quite mobile....still have eyes closed though....I'll be able to sex them soon, the boys will be moved to a new home

    Snowdrop

    Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. They are all so beautiful!

    I am in sweet adoration over those teeny babies. I just had a rescued mama give birth her a couple of months ago. They've gotten hair so my guess is that they are about ten days old? Maybe two weeks? I think by two and a half weks they had eyes opened and were much more mobile. It looks like you've got all whites and one lil blackie in there!

    awwe how cute!! Those lil mousies will only get cuter as they grow up.. soon they'll be fuzzies, then (my personal favorite stage) hoppers !! I miss having mousies and ratties around .. Are you planning on keeping those babies? or have you found them homes? Have fun with those lil boogers either way.

    Aaaw, they are all so adorable! It certainly looks like those cages provide an excellent, spacious place for them all to live. Thanks for sharing those lovely pics

    What beautiful babies you have!!!

    I absolutely love that big cage for your rats!! I want to upgrade my rat's cage to a bigger, more spacious cage. Any ideas??? He's presently in a 10 gallon tank and I'd like to give him more room to move around in.
