1 week old babies!
Badger (family name :) and Aero
More like twins than the litter we were expecting, but they make up for it in boundless energy and comical fights. How can anyone hate such beautiful creatures ?
When they're first born they have no eyes or ears, and are completely reliant on their mother. They squeak almost constantly when awake at first (just like humans) :)
Daughters to: Echo and Splat
Babies @ 2 weeks
Babies in jar
Badger and Aero in what has become known as 'the birthing jar' as Alex - carer of Splat & eight others - called it after many of her rats were born in it.
Baby Aero
Looks just like her mum :)
Baby Badger
Not too common to see a girl-rat asleep on your lap, it's more of a boy-rat thing.
Tiny Baby Badger
She is smaller than it looks in the picture, the 'huge' box is a bird-box.. :)
