Cinco de Mayo litter!

All these babies have found their homes. Thanks so much!

This brand new litter was born a little before Cinco de Mayo. They're $5 each and they'll be ready to go home on May 30th. They've been held constantly from the moment they were born and they will make the most wonderful pets. Rats are really social, so they always need to have a rat companion. If you currently don't have any rats, take two (or more)! If you have rats already, you can always add a youngster to your community.

Email me if you'd like one (or two or three) of these cuties! RexburgRats @ gmail.com (take out the spaces)

New litter, born April 4th!

UPDATE: All these sweet ratties have found awesome homes.

We have a new litter of rats! They are $5 to a good home. They were all handled daily from the moment they were born and are friendly and curious. They will make excellent pets! Remember that rats are highly social, so they should always have a cage-mate. If you don't already have rats at home, make sure to take two rats from me. And if you already have rats at home, the babies will fit right in.

HOME! {Reserved for Kailey} Adrian - male (agouti, berkshire). Adrian, with the heart on his belly is the sweetest. An absolute favorite around here.


HOME! {Reserved for Jackie and Kylie} Alfred - male (agouti, berkshire). Alfred is our little clumsy boy. He has so much energy, but almost no coordination. He keeps us laughing.


HOME! {Reserved for Jackie and Kylie} Jack - male (agouti, berkshire). Jack is our biggest boy. He's super friendly and loves attention.

HOME! {Reserved for Kailey} Linus - male (agouti, berkshire). Linus is our smallest boy and our most patient. He'll sit quietly in your hand for a long time.

HOME! {Reserved for Lexi} Arthur - male (fawn, hooded). Arthur is always looking for fun (and treats!).

HOME! {Reserved for Lexi} Milton - male (chocolate agouti, hooded). Milton is playful and sweet, but can sleep through almost anything.

HOME! {Reserved for Nikki} Sally - female (chocolate agouti, capped with spot and star). Oh, what a sweet, shy girl Sally is. We just love her!

HOME! {Reserved for Maddie} Starla - female (agouti, capped with star). Starla is spoiled, spoiled, spoiled. This girl gets anything she wants.

HOME! {Reserved for Ada} Lucy - female (fawn, capped). Lucinda is always looking to be held. She is too cute! 

HOME! {Reserved for Ada} Dandelion - female (fawn, berkshire). Dandelion loves to be held and ride around on your shoulder.

HOME! {Reserved for Nikki} Martha - female (beige, berkshire). Martha loves to sleep. She's a good sport, though, when you wake her up to take her picture.

HOME! Minerva - female (fawn, berkshire). Minerva is so sweet and cuddly! Seriously a charmer.

Beautiful Litter Born January 30th

UPDATE: All ten of these babies have gone to their homes. 

These baby rats are $5 to a good home. They'll be weaned and ready to go on February 27th. They're held and played with every day and will make wonderful pets. We had four females and six males. Rats are social and do best in groups of two or more, so please consider taking a pair in order to avoid a solitary pet rat.

 The Boys: The Girls:

A new litter, born January 30th

We had ten adorable (I know, it's a debatable term) baby rats born on Friday (four females, six males). Don't worry. I'll be adding new "cute" pictures when they grow some fur. They'll be available to go home on February 27th. They all have black eyes and I'm expecting mostly white fur with some small blue, black, or agouti markings. We'll see soon if my guess is right.

Miracle Litter Born October 10, 2014

UPDATE: All of these babies have found their homes. Thank you so much for the interest in these 17 rats and for making them your pets.

We have a new wonderful litter of "agouti" and "blue agouti" babies born here. All of them are $5 to a good home. Just email me at RexburgRats @ gmail.com (take out the spaces) to arrange to pick them up. They do best in pairs (or more), so definitely consider taking more than one. You can also add a baby or two to your existing adult pet rats. Adult rats love babies rats.

Our favorite mama rat, Stella, came from a litter of 9, and in her first litter she delivered 9 babies. Pretty average. When she was pregnant with this second litter, she was looking a bit more rotund, so I guessed she'd have about 12 babies this time around. We were pretty surprised to find 17 babies in her nest! Not only did she carry and deliver 17 babies, but all of them survived birth, and all of them are doing well to this day. What a feat! She did a great job raising these little things. It's the biggest litter I've ever had.

We have 9 females and 8 males. All of them have been handled and socialized from the day they were born. They're nothing like the (unfriendly) rats from the pet store. Both parents have the greatest temperament, so it's no surprise that these babies are also as sweet as can be. At this age, baby rats are exploring their world by nibbling on everything (including our fingers), but these little babies are licking everything instead of nibbling. Again, they take after their parents. They will make the most affectionate little pets.

HOME! {RESERVED FOR SAMANTHA} Jem (MALE, blue agouti, capped, headspot, bareback). Jem is our favorite male because he has infinite patience. He'll make a great pet.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR BRYNN} Shirley (MALE, agouti, capped, headspot, bareback). This little guy is a ball of energy. He's so much fun.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR CASSANDRA} Walter (MALE, agouti, capped, headspot). Walter is adorable and so sweet.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR STEPHANIE} Gerald (MALE, agouti, capped, blazed, bareback). This is my favorite male. He always looks so intelligent. 


HOME! {RESERVED FOR STEPHANIE} Carl (MALE, agouti, capped, headspot, bareback). Carl is mischievous! Don't let that little face fool you.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR KATIE} Moon (MALE, agouti, capped, headspot). Moon is the rat everybody wants to hold. He is universally loved.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR KATIE} Gilbert (MALE, agouti, hooded). This is a gentle little guy who is never in a hurry.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR BRYNN} John, Jr. (MALE, agouti, hooded). We love John Jr.'s little spot on his belly, just like his daddy.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR DEJA} Arrow (FEMALE, blue agouti, blazed, capped, barebacked). Arrow is mild and sweet. She does well with little kids because she's mellow.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR DEJA} Lily (FEMALE, blue agouti, hooded). Lilly is smart and playful. She's a favorite, for sure.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR MARK AND STACI} Di (FEMALE, agouti, capped, headspot). Di is short for Diamond. She's the runt of the litter and so full of spunk. We had to make a special effort early on to make sure she had room to nurse so she'd survive. And she has thrived! She's our best jumper, in fact.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR BRITTANY} Nan (FEMALE, agouti, capped, bareback). These pictures don't do Nan justice. She's such a pretty little thing.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR CHRISTY} Faith (FEMALE, agouti, hooded). Faith is our biggest female. The girl likes her treats! And she has that cute little spot on her belly to remind us.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR CHRISTY} Una (FEMALE, agouti, hooded). Una is the spitting image of one of our unrelated rats. My kids are certain they're long, lost twins.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR BRITTANY} Miss Cornelia (FEMALE, agouti, hooded). Miss Cornelia is curious and in everybody's business and is likely to lick you to death.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR CHRISTY} Mary Vance (FEMALE, agouti, hooded). Mary Vance is as playful as playful gets. She's always looking for an adventure.


HOME! {RESERVED FOR MARK AND STACI} Rilla (FEMALE, agouti, hooded). Such a sweet baby is our Rilla. She's on the smaller end of things, too.


Here are the super parents. Stella (agouti, capped, blazed, bareback) on the left, and Johnny (American blue, hooded) on the right.


And in case you're wondering, this is what a litter of 17 rats looks like! (Females on the left, males on the right).
