I have 3 female rats whom I thing are pregnant. I was petsitting my friends male rat. I was playing with all four of them in the playpen. My phone rang so I ran out to go get it. I was on the phone for only like 12 minutes and I came back and everything seemed fine. My friend came to pick up her rat yesterday and this morning I started noticing that my rats are gaining wieght and eating more and dont seem to want to be held so much! It was only a week ago that they were left alone (i was petsitting for a month). If they are pregnant, I need to know a few things!
Should they be seperated?
Do I need to change their diet?
How long until the babies are born?
All 17 friends of mine that want pets (if you read my previous question) said they would love having a rat or two, so when should I give them to them for adoption?
What is everything I can do to make my 3 rats as comfortable as possible until the babies are born?
When should I seperate males from females?
pleez hlp!!
