Right now I'm not sure about the hair of the babies, and the mother I'm keeping. She's a little skitzy. But there are 8 babies in all, I think most are females, I'll keep you all updated, they're only 3 days old today. She seems to still be feeding them and caring for them. I've been making her chicken and rice with broccoli, along with some other goodies to keep her strength up.

Well I wanted to get homes before the girls from the shelter found out and would want to put them to sleep, because any baby animals have to get euthanized, but I brought her home, and now if they find out I'll have homes for them.

Ugh, well in that case if they find out you can tell them they all have homes , even if they don't if Curiosity is willing to help transport. I'll take them in before  I'd say put them down.  In the meantime though you can put me down for at least 2 girls, but if others are interested  they can go to them first Smiley I'm here to help though.

Alright, we'll see what we can do as they get older.  I can't believe how quickly they grow! Day three already and some are dark and some are pink still.

Finally! Pictures!! I think there's between 5 and 6 females and 2 males.  I'm keeping two females. So hopefully someone will step up and take the males. 
The boys.


The Girls.


And a Pile!



I'm pretty sure that there are four pink ones, and 4 dark ones.  And I know I'm missing one, the mum was carrying one mroe around the cage, I think it was a female, but I'm not sure.  But Theyr'e growing so fast! I may be able to keep a male and a female, I'm not sure yet, but I really wanted two females.

I dunno, someone correct me if im wrong, but it hought that a nekkid*furkid= some fur some not. I love those little black girls! Too cute! Do the light ones have red eyes? Does mom have red eyes?

Well the mom has dark eyes, and all of the dads that were with the group with hooded straight furred boys.  They were the only boys. So it must have been one of them. All with dark eyes.  I'm not sure what they'll be, but I sure love them!! If there's hairless I'd like one, and one furred. Both females, but then there's two males, atleast, and the 6 or 5 females, I didn't see the one that she was carrying around.  But I hope they stay healthy and happy. I gave the mum some kitten food, with goats milk, and Suebees mix today.  She's happy!

A double rex can look naked or furry when little. They will grow fur then lose it. Everytime they do so less fur grows back. I believe most Hairless are actually double rex. A true Hairless won't have any fur/fuzz on the nose or body.
My Double rex babies looked completely bald after loosing the fur (except for the nose) then it grew back and stayed.

True hairless will grow a fur coat as an infant and on first moult at 6-8 weeks they'll drop it all.  And true hairless also often have fuzzy noses.

Also, if mum is a true hairless, whoever dad is would have to have carried hairless for there to be any nudists in the litter.  If mum just happens to be a really un-furred double rex, then you'll have some rex babies in the litter, but no hairless.

except for one light baby, they all look to have straigh whiskers - meaning they probably won't be hairless, double rex, or rex. they are very cute though !

I actually looked today and many have curled whiskers, I saw that atleast three do.  They deffinately curl at the end rather than lay straight.

Hi.  What can you tell me about the two males?  We are interested in adopting two male ratties, preferably hairless.

I was always told that true hairless do not have fuzz/fur on them at all and
should have very short tiny whiskers - none  at all. (This was from a breeder) and the ones who do have the fuzz on thier noses and some on the base of tail were mock hairless aka Double Rex.
This is getting a bit off topic though (although it was asked)
 so maybe a "Breeder" can PM me and let me know? Smiley

The males are both very sweet, one seems like he will be haired, and one will be either rex, or double rex.
