    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

Mom is a Blue Agouti and dad is a Pink eyed Siamese, not quite sure what color this one will be and not sure it will be able to walk :confused:

Ugh the cuteness! I miss my ratties :(

Wonder if it'll pass on a 'tail-less' gene? That would be fun! I'm sure more people would keep rats if they didn't have the tail, which I find is the most disliked thing about them.
 
There are manx rats it is a recessive gene. Although it's hard to know if this is a manx or a mishap until you inbreed its offspring. If it is genetic you really should cause they are rare!

This is the 3rd manx our lines have produced so it's not a mishap it's genetic.
The first one died at 1 week old this one is now breeding and another manx was just born this past week at my other partners who is running this line of rats too.
This female has been breeding the manx carrier male that's producing them and should be pregnant by now,
have to ask my partner since this female manx is at his house breeding.
Good stuff!
 
This female manx has been breeding her grandfather who is a dwarf rex, hopefully we get to see what a dwarf manx looks like soon :)
 
A couple more manx we've produced recently, burmese and Black Eye Siamese

Burmese manx has a tiny tip sticking out it's spine.
