I don't know how this happenedOne minute I was playing with the feeder rats evaluating who might be a good friend for Patron to learn some rattie social skills with, and the next this girl climbed right up to my shoulders and said "I'm ready when you are" and then she gave me rattie kisses. I may be strong enough to be able to play with feeder rats without taking them all home, but I'm a sucker for an animal who takes their fate into their own hands. I'm 90% set on the name Marli Tharn.
She may be pregnant. She weighs 300g today. If she starts gaining quickly I'll know for sure. I think the skiddish black rat in with her may have been a boy, I didn't get a close look at him/her.
