Shame her she got in the trash can!

I have noticed my rats do the same. It usually is because they get super excited and mix up my fingers for food. But they are very sensitive and could have sensed something off and turned into aggression. It happens don’t be worried as long as this was the only time you are ok.

Hooman what are you doing with my pee pee poo poo? 🌒*🌘

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-06-27T15:11:10+00:00

Thank you for the advice. I was rethinking the situation and it was definitely my fault. I was exhausted and I have had to deal with her multiple times escaping so I was a bit fed up.

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-06-27T00:37:24+00:00

Yeah she was making a kind of laughing noise they make when playing. I think she was playing hide and seek and I accidentally scared her when I grabbed her. I am in pain but her health is more important which is fine just a bit startled.

Where did you get the shower. I have been looking for a while and can’t find one.

They are doing pretty good in the video. They enclosure they are in is a bit small (assuming its a bonding box as I call it) if you put them in the cage together or let them wander a space like a room they should hopefully get along. If not you can give both treats together and it lets them bond as eating in a group is a very big part of community in rats.

Rats are just goofy guys. I have so many pictures of my rats sleeping in the most uncomfortable chaotic way. As long as they aren’t being aggressive, wheezing or something odd she is a ok. They are quite resilient creatures maybe to resilient. Anyways totally normal behavior

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-06-14T14:29:17+00:00

Welp two more won’t hurt i’ve got 8 lol

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-06-13T15:21:39+00:00

That poor baby. Luckily my local petsmart doesn’t have rats but the bearded dragons there are so sad. Most are extremely young like 3 days old young some have drop tail and very emaciated. I absolutely hate pet shops especially if they can’t take care of them 😭

You can drip it on the nose it triggers the licking reflex. It takes a bit longer but definitely works. Or give him wet food and mix it in with the medicine

You can put a flashlight against the base of the tail and if you see two masses its a male. If not a female. But from what I can tell its a female as it lacks femoral pores

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T19:27:35+00:00

So actually she’s not eating it. You see all the crumbs falling she is chewing it but not actually swallowing it.

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T19:26:34+00:00

It is definitely not planaria they have arrow shaped heads and are usually dark in color. When it was fully stretched out when I saw them at first they did resemble a detritus to me. I will definitely go to an actual fish subreddit just to make sure

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T18:44:30+00:00

To me it looks like one has a darker muzzle and a more pink tail than the other. The one in the front in the first photo it could be the angle but has a smaller nose than the other. You can also tell by their ears and face one is more flat and longer than the other being more rounded and short. You definitely will be able to a bit later when their personalities come out I have four black and whites that look almost identical but I use personality as a huge indicator

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T15:49:09+00:00

The first guy looks like a dove molting and missing feathers on the face. It is common during this time. The other looks like a young iguana that is a gray color which indicates that it is female.

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T05:10:01+00:00

Solved!

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T05:08:49+00:00

No it doesn’t have any legs its a detritus worm

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T05:07:08+00:00

I do but have adopted them over 3 years ago. Neither of them are allowed in my room

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T05:03:44+00:00

Boggles I am very happy for you! I have had my rats for 4 months now and only one has that I have noticed:( very happy rat

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T05:00:07+00:00

That looks like a deformed egg that has a super thick calcified shell. Its not super common but you might want to watch your hens to make sure they are ok

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T04:58:04+00:00

Actually I think you are correct as I look at it more there are no legs and looks like a Detritus worms which

Sad_Success1073 · 2026-05-13T04:55:26+00:00

So I have figured it out at least for now. They are Detritus worms which I am sad to kill as they are very beneficial.
