Adorable rat! I would love to have a black berkshire, I have never seen any around...even in the local rat rescues. Can't wait to see more pictures!

Hmmm....naming animals for me is hard unless I actually see, touch, and hold the critter. Hmm...some names I, personally, would consider:

Schwarz-- "black" in German
Nero- "black" in Italian
Preto-"black" in Portuguese
Svart- "black" in Norwegian
Dougan
Charlie
Nile
