Re: Oops, I made a mistake with my rat

No, I don't have that information. If I were able to get rats from proper breeders around these parts, I would have done.
Thats my one area of interest, creating a family tree, with as much info as I can
Health is important to me, and I have kept a close eye on my gang, I would never breed Minky due to him being undersized.
I haven't had any of them with breathing problems, temperament problems etc
Though it would be better, unfortunately it just isn't possible to already have the history
You have to start somewhere, and if I am going to be able to create a 5 gen history then I have to start from the very beginning and use my own knowledge and judgement.
I have taken in so many rescues, I really believe there wouldn't be anywhere near the number of unwanted rats, if they were bred and handled well from the very beginning.
If I am ever in need of advice, or am unsure of anything to do with my rats, I would come here first for honest and valuable advice
