Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

There are several forms of blue. All of them being a dilute of another color. These happen to be Russian Blue, which is a recessive trait.
Dumbo ears are also a recessive trait. I would love to see co-dominant dumbos.
I don't know why you feel the need to bash my rats. They are what they are. They're not worth $50, but I never claimed that they were LOL.

Just redid mine, don't need any funny guy comments.... Are my eyes bad??? Those are faaaaaaaaaaaaaar from blue Captain... Anybody else?? Man, I'm sorry I rained on your parade by simply placing some nice ratties up; you can buy mine, never said you couldn't; just gotta get down here?? What are you trying to do here T; besides ruin your rep?? I'll put yours to mine in a Pepsi challenge anyday of the week, twice on Sunday, and even on the holidays.. lol.... This is why mine command big bucks my man; they are rare true blues... And my lineage is a real codom form; meaning, there is either dumbos or normals, that's it, cut, dry and simple, I have heard of a recessive line; never seen one till now, and I hate to admit it, but I saw about two real dumbos in your shots... Do you wear contacts or glasses?? Yours are sooooo far from a "true blue." And, I hardly saw any dumbos in there... I'll be posting some reaaaaaaal dumbos in here tomorrow for ya'll to see... Not just gray... Black n whites, tans, tan n whites etc. etc... Why would you act like this over ratties??? Curious as heck to that question??

Here's some links for anyone who is ignorant as to the different types of blue rats out there.
www.afrma.org/ratgenpart3.htm
www.afrma.org/bluerat.htm
www.afrma.org/russianblue.htm
Also, dumbo ears are a simple recessive trait, just like an albino snake. When you breed a standard ear rat to a dumbo rat you get a rat that is heterozygous for dumbo, but looks normal. A rat will only display the dumbo ears when there is no other ear gene present. The rat must be homozygous for dumbo in order for it to be a dumbo rat. Fact is fact.
If you would like a lesson in rat genetics I would be glad to send you some more links where you can read up on things and update your misinformed opinions.
