I have one male rat, I know that they are social animals but Lucky was a feeder rat the was refused by my friends snake and she was going to just let him outside so I had to do something. Luckily years ago I had 2 girls and I had a cage for him. So now he lives alone in his rat mansion gets so much attention and free roams 18 hours a day! I love him so much!

you definitely still need 3 minimum , 2 very bare minimum i hope you have more now

I love watching back at all of your rat videos as someone who is currently getting supplies to get rats of my own, most creators i find who do content regarding pet rats are youtubers with millions of subscribers and lots and lots of money so its really helpful being able to see what realistic stuff i could get for my own rats 😁

Yes! And they always mention how the startup cost tends to be a lot but I never know what that actually means.

Amazing video and I love all your rats, their all so cute and it looks like they have an amazing life. I would maybe recommend putting some more items in their cage to prevent falls but otherwise it looks great. O and about the curled tails, to me they seem to be genetic. My two girls Lilly and Clover came from a not so great breeder and genetically have curled tails. I wouldn't worry to much about, it just seems to cause their balance to not be as great. So if possible you could add some extra fall breakers 😁

That is actually so helpful! The genetics scenario makes a lot of sense. And yeah I've added a few since I filmed the video, I usually have a bunch of boxes and extra things but they weren't in for the video. But that's a good point about the balance and them needing a little bit of extra cushioning!

I have 2 girl rats, Remy and Alice. I love watching you this is my first time they're about to be 2 months old

Hi hi! So contrary to the other comments about the wheel, neither 12 nor 14 inches is enough for adult females. A rescue in my area mentions how if you really want a wheel, it should be minimum 30 inches in order to avoid the curled tail because that is spinal damage. But! You can check and see if you can find a saucer/disk like wheel instead for a more suitable alternative!

I appreciate you letting me know nicely! It was working for a while when the girls were babies since their backs werent curved which is what matters with the wheels but I am saving now to get them and extra big and nice one. I love the curved one idea, thank you! 💜💜💜 I appreciate you watching 💞

Oh i really like your vibe,!😍 U seem so sweet . Greatings from a rat nerd in sweden.

Hi!!! Wow thank you so much!

I have 100 rats and I have 49 females and 51 male and they are so good and well trained

Really cute video! Just to let you know a 12" wheel is to small for adult rats, its fine for young females and dwarfs but not a full grown rat. The minimum for females is 14" and the minimum for males is 16". Just wanted to let you know and i hope this helps

Your rats are so sweet, I have 6 boys and they're a handful to say the least! I Just wanted to drop a comment about their wheel. You mentioned its 12 inches, I believe the minimum is 14" for females and 16" for males x

Okay. I feel better about having 9. I had 6, then rescued 4 in an unbelievably bad situation (people suck). One passed after trying everything. Vet had warned me but I wanted to try anyways. What's money if not a way to help others. I'm rambling .. cute girls. And.. once you have 2 rats, whats 6.

HI! New subscriber here! Cute group of girls! I personally have 9 rats 4 girls and 5 boys when ch is the first time for me. My original group I always had girls my original breeder moved so I was without rats for 4-5 years since ratters from me was minimum was 3 hours one way. A new breeder popped up really close by so I got my 4 girls 4 are martens 1 is Rex and the other is double Rex. I ended up adopting 5 boys f on her that for some r Aston people were over looking 4 are naked and one has fur. And yes such a difference between boys and girls. Looking forward to more videos ❤️

Omg they sound so adorable! Thank you so much for sharing! Yeah I had a couple local breeders that I got my first girls from but that turned out to be not such a great breeder. Lol for my two girls that I got from a breeder I drove like 3 and 1/2 hours 🤣 And my other four I got from a friend who no longer could care for them

@@amethystscorner you are very welcome! Unfortunately people say they are "breeders" but in reality they are not or not taking the time to ensure there line. A breeder popped up maybe 30min away from me and after digging with questions didn't seem like he knew what he was doing. Hope yourself and the rats are doing well?
