Black marble - a new variety here at the rattery! Marble coat causes color to clump unevenly, similar to merle pattern in dogs. I got these two beauties all the way from South Dakota and I’m so excited to start a new line based on them

I'm so obsessed with these little cuties!
So, funny story
I'm still in contact with the breeder I bought the boys from, keeping her updated on their health and well being. And I keep watch on her facebook just because her work with rats is fascinating.
Well, after the last litter, which I got my boys from, moved out, she found out one of the females kept in that cage for socializing the pups, had become pregnant. A lesson learned to separate the boys and girls a bit earlier than used to. At least this female weren't relate to that litter, so whatever sneaky male saw his opportunity, it's not gonna be inbreeding!
The pups have been born and grown enough fur to try identify the possible father. And the breeder determined.. it's Duke! MY boy Duke!
She seems pretty sure of it. She's gonna keep the pups as new breeding litter, even if she hadn't planned for a new one this soon - but only got praise for how pretty and healthy they are.
Duke oughta be proud, although shameless XD
baby rats are at the 'so ridiculously cute they look fake' stage of life 💞
Holy guacamole!
Look at this living breathing being!
Do you guys remember when I said my boy Dwight Jr had a girl friend over? Well they had 8 successful pups!!!
I believe I will be taking home this little man and one of his brother’s!
He is 3 weeks d I believe in this photo that was taken a few days ago at least.
I've just gotten tons of photos from Ganymede, Dawn, and Biscuits litters. Here are 10 choice pics; I focused on Ganymedes litter since they're about a week older than the rest. If you'd like to see more photos of any of them let me know! Inbox is also open for questions and stuff today until 3pm
"hairless rats have all kinds of problems and people breed those all the time!" is not the airtight argument in favor of Manx rats so many people seem to think it is
"you just hate breeders in general" I'M STARTING TO, MAN

Day 11 of life I only took pictures of one of the Blue Agouti/Blue-Beige pups in an attempt to get a better idea of what color they really are.
