Well,you obviously would have to keep it warm ( give it an undertank heating pad,just put it in one corner of the tank/cage.) I suppose they eat whatever other rats eat. You might want to knit it a very small sweater,LOL! Here's a link for you.

Skinless would be rather creepy. I'm sure you meant Hairless.
Anyways, Hairless rats are cared for the same way a furry one would be. Look up basic ''rat care'' information. Only requirement for hairless rats, is to make sure the room is kept at a stable temperature. They can get cold/hot a lot easier.

Hairless rats eat the same as regular fancy rats, just need a bit more protein. You can get them yogurt/soy treats and higher protein lablocks and this will take care of it. They need a hammock to sleep in to protect them from the cold and from scratchy bedding. They really need a buddy, furred or hairless, to keep them warm and keep them from feeling lonely. Hairless are great pets! :0) Good luck!

They eat rat food that you can get at the pet store. Carrots cute up are good too. They like to chew on wood too.

Read this guide, it will help you: http://www.ratsrule.com/ratcare.html
Hairless rats have the same requirements as regular rats, except that they're more susceptible to cold. Make sure they have another haired rat to snuggle with.
