They are a little bit smaller than a rat, but they do look a bit chunkier when they fluff themselves up for a cuddle

Re: Good Thoughts Please... Im Nervous...

Re: Good Thoughts Please... Im Nervous...

i know i eventually got him down to 900grams in the end.

but when he was a baby we often joked we been given a mouse instead of a rat as he was a lot smaller than his brother,but he soon made up for it later on
