Buckner...

I totally undestand what you're saying. Honestly, I don't have enough room for 3 rats, they would take up more space than 3 field mice, correct?

Let me go into more detail about how they came into my home..
My fiance had noticed something was getting into his motorcycle a day or so before... Something had chewed up his insurance card which is under the passanger seat of his motorcycle. So, being the man he is, he stuck a box of decon under the seat (which he didn't tell me until after). The next morning, this rodent had made a nest IN the decon box, which is where these babies were. He removed them from the decon, and placed them in a cardboard box in the same area as his bike was. We kept a close eye on the box for the whole day, no Momma rodent returned and I was not going to leave them overnight to be eaten by something or to freeze to death. So, they came home with me.

So here I am now, with these 3 babies, of which I am still not 100% sure are Rats... They just seem to big to be day old mice... BUT, they very well could be.
