Aw they're gorgeous.

They are gorgeous :-)

Hope they find forever homes soon :-)

One of the black hooded boys has gone to be a companion for a rescue boy that was the only male in his litter. I do not normally rehome single rats but the exception is when they are going with rats of the same age.

There has also been some interest in the rest of the litter

The 5 girls are now reserved No luck for the boys

we had a request on our forum for baby rats as the girl did not want to go to a pet shop due to past resp disease in rats there but she is in glasgow, is there potential for a rat train? I am in carlisle in the next week or so on a run? Mandy x

Hi Mandy,

Sorry I didn't see this earlier (I will have to update settings so I get an email when there are replies). I think Scotland might be a bit far but I have a friend going to Doncaster in the next couple of weeks so don't know how far that would be?

Thank you,
Clare

All the girls have been homed. So that leaves 7 beautiful boys, although there has been some interest in a pair

what beautiful colourful rats

Is there any more news on these?

No nothing more for these lovely lads.

they get new homes soon

The three champagne hooded boys are reserved to go together.

The agouti hooded boy and one of the black hooded boys are reserved to go together.

There was some interest in the remaining two black hooded boys but it fell through.

Glad to hear they're reserved, rats are very cute when babies

All the boys are still here, although all but two black hoodeds are reserved.
