My nakkie popped again but i think she doesnt produce milk is why she keeps losing them so I switch out my whites litter and gave her the new borns well see if shell take care of them or not. Her babies are almost 3 weeks so right now they are with the other females. As for my blacks litter out of 9-10 babies only one is a female!

Im so over these wild rats killing my baby rats!! The one with a heart shaped is missing an entire legs another missing a tail! Doesnt help the house next door is empty grass overgrown and half filled pool with mosquitos in the back!

this is why i will always leave poison out. The natural predators obviously aint doing their job anyways!!

I can't pretend when they start looking like rats though.

I hope your little one makes it. And, I hope you can find a way to eliminate that wild rat problem. Those babies are so adorable. It’s sad to see them under attack.

Well things got switched around now i have a bigger problem something stole one on my ducks from my shed so now my gander and pair of ducks are in my rat shed until i can see what im dealing with on that so maybe that will deter wild rats for a bit in that shed. I still have one from a last litter missing her front arm because of one and some missing tails thought i got the big rat but this new one looks like a female possibly did see a dying female few weeks ago.
