speaking of freaky clowns, my boyfriend said one should be 'it'. i told him that wasn't the best name for a pet hahah.

[diffuse01]

how are the babies & raja doing amber?
i didn't want this to get pushed to the second page 

[Rat girl]

They are doing great!!!  Nice full milk bellies, and lots of squeaking and squirming!

I have pictures from yesterday, but it was so hectic that i couldnt get them uploaded.  I'm on the search for a job today, and will be passing out resumes for the better part of the morning.

Upon returning home, i will be taking pictures from today, and i'll post yesterday's and today's!

[diffuse01]

that's good to hear!
good luck with your job search, can't wait to see the pictures 

[diffuse01]

just bumping this up.
hope the babies are still doing well  .

[Rat girl]

Yes, the babies are great.  I was not so great last night.  I was on the couch for the majority of the evening, with a severe migraine and all that good stuff

But, lots of pic's to make up for it!

Girls 10/15


Boys 10/15


Girls Yesterday

I'll get pictures from today as well 

As you can see their pigment is really starting to show, and we have lots of different shades. 

**I fixed the pic!**

[luvmyrats]

Yay for Friday the 13th eepers!!

[mamarat2]

Congrats on the babies!  Hope mama is still doing well!

[DolciLady]

Congrats, Amber!  Very nice plump babies and the mom is absolutely stunning.  Can't wait to see what colors and markings they show.  How neat 13 on the 13th.  Good luck with the job hunt and migraine and dead puter and mom's dead car.  Nuffin else bad better happen, enough's enough!  LOL

Kady, I love the names you and bf came up with. 

Pic ho extraordinaire,
Robin

[diffuse01]

Kady, I love the names you and bf came up with. 

thanks 
i didn't think i'd be able to come up with that many, but i typed in 'horror movie' on google and TONS of sites came up that listed practically ever horror movie you could think of, so that helped alot.

amber - the babies look great! i can't wait to see what colors/markings they all end up getting! hope you're feeling better today.. migraines are the worst!

[Rat girl]

Today's Pictures!

I just did group shots today, i'll split them up for tomorrows shoot!







BTW: I want to thank everyone for the great naming ideas! I was having such a hard time coming up with a theme, but i guess Raja kinda came up with one for me!    I'll be compiling which names i like best for males and females, and i'll try to post them tomorrow!  Probably in a week i'll start assigning names to the babies.

[ceruleandigo]

  Is that....a ball of babies?! Very cute!! hehe

[sbdirham]

Adorable babies!  Congrats on the litter and healthy mom!

As for names.....  Why not Jack for Jack Nicholson?  He's one of the scariest actors I've seen.
(I may have to start thinking of name, too.... Mimi may give me babies around Halloween.)

[diffuse01]

it's crazy how much they've changed, even from 10/15 to now!
my mom decided the darker babies look like little mini hippos  .

[Rat girl]

Today i got a better look at the babies.  I can see markings on many, but the berkshires and self will be impossible to tell apart for a few days.  It *appears* that two of the boys are merled.  One of them is, for sure.  The other is harder to tell because he appears to be a darker color.

I can't really tell colors yet, but it shouldnt be too much longer!

Boys


Girls


I'll try to get some more random shots of them this evening when i have more time, so check back!

[dwankrista]

Awwwwwwwwwww wook at da pwetty eepers!!!  Congrats!   

[BigMommaBear]

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!! CONGRATS TO YA!

[diffuse01]

i can't wait til they get their hair and we can all see what colors/markings they'll have!

[Rat girl]

I just  these babies!!!


The whole group! 


All the lighter babies.  Looks to be mainly Cinnamon, a few mink, and a few merled.  A couple of the babies are a lot lighter, and i'm not quite sure what color they are yet.  Its too early to tell!


The two lighter babies.  Maybe a fawn and beige.  The one on the right might be American blue based, but i'm not sure yet.  Both females.


All the black and agouti bubs.   


A merled baby.  I think he is Mink.


Another group shot...


And other!!!

My names list is almost complete, i am just trying to decide on one more name for each sex!  It was so hard to choose as it is, those last two are tough!

Girls:
PVR Carol Anne
PVR Emily Rose
PVR Baby Firefly
PVR Rosemary
PVR Samara
PVR Clarice Starling

Boys:
PVR Jigsaw
PVR M. Night Shyamalan (i think it has a nice ring to it when its the full name!)
PVR Pennywise
PVR Krueger
PVR Vorhees

They are getting so big! Raja is being a great mamma now! Tomorrow i will probably be getting pictures of her and her babies together.

[diffuse01]

i swear they get cuter by the day!
love the names you've picked so far 

[luvmyrats]

I vote for heeeereeeeeeeeesss Johnny! (Johnny RAt) Jack Nickolson from the Shinning.  What was Drew Barrymore's name in Firestarter?? 

[Shar]

Charlie (Charlene)

[Rat girl]

Hello again everybody!!!  Today i am able to tell the babies apart, so i have assigned names!    If the markings are not noted, that is because they are either berkshire/irish/self--its too early to tell!

Without further ado...

Girlies!!!


PVR Carol Anne: Beige? Standard Coat
PVR Clarice Starling: Either RED or Blue based Variberk Standard Coat


PVR Rosemary: Agouti Standard Coat
PVR Charlene: Black Standard Coat


PVR Baby Firefly: Cinnamon Rex
PVR Emily Rose: Cinnamon Standard
PVR Samara: Havana? Standard

Boys!!!


PVR Here's Johnny: Agouti Rex
PVR Krueger: Black Rex Variberk
PVR Pennywise: Black Standard


PVR Vorhees: Mink Merle Rex
PVR Jigsaw: Mink? Rex Varigated
PVR M Night Shyamalan: Cinnamon Merle? Varigated Standard Coat

I am unsure of most of the colors, and i've made the best guesses i can so far.  At least i can tell them each apart, so they'll all have names starting now.  I'll be taking pictures of Raja and them together after they've had a little time back with mom to nurse.  Check back!

[diffuse01]

they are all so adorable!
i've always wanted a merle.. hmm..
are all of these babies dumbos? i forgot what they were supposed to be awhile back 
and, when does everyone on the reserve list get to pick their babies out? i assume once they've opened their eyes and such, but i'm new to this whole reserve list thing.

[anita1216]

awwwwww they are so cute. The names are absolutely wonderful. What litter theme could of been better for October and Friday the 13th? Thats just awesome.
