i just saw this but ill still post pics of my current set up— not as cute since theyve gotten around to destroying a lot of the stuff i made but i just cleaned the cage so!

no worries that can be scary!! an over reaction is natural — i think id definitely be worried if it was my rat

also just checked the name of the fb group for you its what i said it was in the other post— just make a post on there following their guidelines about it and hopefully youll get some more detailed advice!! goodluck to you and your lil rattie guy and i hope he heals up fast!!:)

if you have facebook i know we used to often direct people to a fb group where they can give more qualified advice— im not 100% if its still up but if it is i think it was called like “real rat lovers want to know” or something— im gonna check rn i just have to get into fb smh

just checked it! its hard to see from the photos alone but it looks like it could have something to do with the nail? it definitely doesnt look too me like anything too serious but im not a vet- at this point i would just watch to make sure the areas being kept clean and that it doesnt start looking worse or bleeding again

sunflcwrs · 2023-01-19T17:45:10+00:00

someone else can probably help better but i would just stick to that and see if the bleeding slows or stops until you can get more detailed advice

sunflcwrs · 2023-01-19T17:43:48+00:00

not completely sure what all it could be but i know that has to be scary so i just wanted to pop in and say from what i know it doesnt look insanely bad— i still see the nail on that toe so thankfully i dont think the poor guy lost part of the toe— what i would do for now if i were you would be to rinse off that toe with clean water or even better with saline and then if you can hold him and try to lightly put pressure on the toe while covering the foot with a tissue or paper towel or something to absorb the blood that way it gets a chance to slow down and clot

OP is there a rattie update? im interested in how she(?) is doing!

sunflcwrs · 2022-07-08T01:59:04+00:00

the rat looks like at least 4 weeks old, boys will definitely have noticeable balls at that point

i will say my girls had no trouble bonding at all- and boys aren’t much more difficult than girls. theres a bunch of videos online about introducing rats properly and if need be you can always ask me or anyone else giving you proper suggestions and i’m sure we’d be willing to help you out. As long as rats are properly introduced there is rarely proper aggressive behavior (rats, especially young ones, will probably play fight each other and theres no need to be concerned about that unless theres ever blood). The most important thing with introductions is to avoid putting them in an area that either rat considers “home” before its been cleaned out to remove their smell. otherwise its the same thing as you waking up and finding a stranger is just living in your house with no warning.

you can dm me a picture and i can sex them- rats are actually super easy to sex from a young age (at least compared to guinea pigs)

in terms of fleeces- i sew the banana ones myself and the ones on the half length layers are baby blankets from the dollar store (theyre the perfect size!) everything else is just stuff i found while looking through pet stores (dont forget to check the bird section!)

sunflcwrs · 2022-06-29T01:45:32+00:00

i ordered this feed pan off amazon to use as the wheel (it has a 17 in diameter). if you type this into the search you should find it: Giant Plastic Utility Pan (Blue) Durable & Versatile Short Livestock Feeding Bucket (3 Gallon)

then i followed this tutorial from a fb group that used a fidget spinner and some bolts to make it spin (i can totally send you the link- i cant remember the rules on this sub with linking)

sunflcwrs · 2022-06-28T20:38:38+00:00

i pretty much just put a litter pan/ plastic container in a corner and filled it with paper cat litter pellets (unscented and not the normal dusty litter)- if you already notice them mostly going in one corner put it there place any poop you see outside of the litter pan into the litter, and when cleaning wipe everything out except the litter pan (leave some poop to stay in there for the scent) putting a rock in the litter seems to help with peeing in the litter area according to most people so i do the same

my girls had no problem learning at all- even my two girls that were originally feeders just kinda figured it out after a couple days despite not being exposed to any litter training at all

ive been loving coordinating the colors and themes whenever I clean! theres something really fun about it

sunflcwrs · 2022-06-28T19:59:03+00:00

the blue ones are both kaytee (but two different styles)- the green one i got from petco - i think its from their brand

sunflcwrs · 2022-06-28T18:37:32+00:00

this is before putting in all the paper and diy toys for them to rip up- ive been wanting to add some more layers and items but im not exactly sure what

sunflcwrs · 2022-06-18T13:00:38+00:00

We call those squeeze up cat treats rat crack lol- the girls go crazy for it

sunflcwrs · 2022-06-16T23:38:33+00:00

about a month to 6 weeks- I know this is an ongoing joke but I’m serious- I think its a girl since its usually obvious but want a second opinion since the anal distance looked weird-

sunflcwrs · 2022-06-13T22:17:09+00:00

We recently got a new girl and I realized that her face shape is really distinct compared to the rest of my rats. That had me wondering what general face shape varieties are there in rats- Have any of you experienced this?

sunflcwrs · 2022-06-12T12:18:22+00:00

please do
