    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

A rat i purchased for breeding as my first breeding project seems to have a problem having pups. (last litter was stillborn with many difficulties :() She was one of the first rats i've ever kept for anything other than feeding, and i have to say, she is quite the sweet animal. she just snuggles up to me sometimes to hang out. Unfortunately i do not have the room or the permission to keep her as a pet only. i am afraid she may be pregnant again due to a frisky male i neglected to separate, and i'm worried this birth may be as difficult as the last, if not more so. if interested, pm for more info. thank you everyone for reading. :eatpointe

Her name is Belle (forgot pics)
 
shes over a year old, but she is on the smaller side, though not as small as these pictures make her. perhaps that is the reason she is unable to breed.
 
i bred rats for 7 years, and found that i had more issue with my petite females. i had one who had multiple still borns and one who would eat her young almost immediately.
also, if you have tried breeding her since she is over a year, they tend to have failed pregnancies and dead babies.
 
She's adorable. I have almost all boys. And a little girl I need to adopt out too lol. Hope she goes to a good home!
