went back on an agreement with me that i was very explicit about, and i'm really mad about it. so i'm making him buy me an FN to make up for his b.s.  what kind should i get? like what type? i have 3 girls, and i'd like room for 5.

[itschelsea]

alright, i'm stuck between the R-695 and R-985. does anyone have pics with ratties in them so i can compare?

[Dearpie]

If you want room for 5, you need the 695.   There are plenty of pictures in the cage decoration threads.

(I presume the 985 is a typo for 685?)

[itschelsea]

yeah yeah haha sorry 

[MiniMuffin]

Don't you mean a Martin's cage and not a FN?

I would go with the 965, although even that would be tight with 5 IMO. I wouldn't keep more then 4 in it.

personally i like martins but for more ratties go RUUD or FN 2 story. But personally i would go with the R-695 out of the 2 you said.

Eh you wouldn't have to get a double FN. A single-story FN would be fine for 5 rats, especially females. I'd just be careful and make sure they couldn't squeeze through, or modify it with hardware cloth just in case. Yeah, it's a pain in the butt to do so, but it is such an easy cage to clean and decorate. That's one reason why I chose it over a Martins.

yeah.....i like martins a little better though.
