I would never recommend a rescue with agression problems to a first time rat mom. You want everyones first experience to be a nice as possible. Only very EXPERIENCED rat owners should take in agressive rats. These rats need a LOT of patience, time and more! They are not for everyone, especially first time rat owners.
