OMG!!!!! I can't believe 10 can fit on your hand! What does the doe look like now? Any thinner?
We rat people call them that too.

She is a lot thinner, yes. It was hard to get them all to fit. I am just lucky she didn't have more. It is a lot harder to place standard ear rats, which is why most of the rats I breed are dumbos. Hopefully since they are rex though, they can be placed easier.
