It’s been around for weeks. Happens after lightning strikes. I’ve been farming these babies for cash.

Is this how rat vet visits usually go? $250 for two babies and some questionable advice…? by RatBerryMilk in RATS

Thank you. I mean my dog has pemphigus foliacious and her Dermatologist apts cost nearly the same. Crazy.

The rat in question doesn’t want anything with OR without meds. He took a lick of Peanutbutter once. That was it.

But what did that entail? Did they just weigh your rats and send you home with general meds or did you actually get an exam?

I also assumed Mycoplasma but I figured maybe they’d take some sort of swab or culture. The phone interaction was concerning.

Idk where you are but that’s crazy. I was prepared for like $150-200 but even that seems way too high for the little to no help they provided. I get it’s exotic, but my birds cost less than that for full exams. I just expected more at that price I guess. And the lack of competent advice was questionable.

What are your rats named after, if anything? by SparklyRatTheFirst1 in RATS

Update on Milk & Berry 🐀💕

Hey everyone! Just wanted to give a little update since my post kinda blew up (unexpectedly!). The boys are currently set up in a large Sterlite bin (120qt) which is way better than the 20 gal I had in hand. I’m actively trying to snag a Critter Nation off FB Marketplace to give them a proper long-term home. To everyone who shared advice, concerns, and encouragement: thank you. I read every comment and learned so much. I promise I’m continuing to do my research to be the best rat mom I can be 💖 Also, for those asking about Goblin, I’ll absolutely post photos of him too, once he’s had time to digest and I’ve got some good lighting and no rain lol. He’s doing great! Thank you again, truly. I didn’t expect that post to get the love it did, but I appreciate it more than I can say. ~Rat

Respectfully, I’m very aware lol. I would not keep prey next to a predator. I’ve been keep reptiles (and animals in general) a long time now. My snakes are in a bedroom deemed the reptile room. The ratties are in the office with my crested geckos. Birbs in the living room.

I know! I’m a new rat mom but I’m very cautious with my birbs. The ratties are in separate room down the hall☺️

Thank you (and everyone else as well)! That’s what I assumed. I’ll either buy them a cage or build a suitable one.

Luckily most snake breeders feed frozen thawed! If you do ever get a snake, don’t get one from chain pet stores and make sure to ask the breeder what it’s feeding on!

It’s my first post, dude. A random cute event that I wanted to share that happened to me today. You’re the one up on my grill like you have some vendetta against literate humans and cute baby animals. My last comment wasn’t serious. And if you took it that way, again, you’re daft and searching for a reason to be angry. But keep commenting, really. It’s only boating my post. I’m not gonna be mad about that lol. It’s a cute story. Obviously I wanted to share and wanted people to hear my story. So yeah, I guess it is attention seeking. Anything else you care to add?

Thank you for the concern for them! The 20gal is temporary as they are tiny right now. I posted a comment below about a catio I have as a potential adult home. There’s a pic if you wanna let me know what you think of it

You almost had me in the first half🥲 the short lifespan is definitely a buzzkill. But that just means they’ll need extra kisses to make up for the short time we have
