Default Meet Zues and Oreo!

Hi guys!
So, if you have been following the other threads I have created, you will now I was planning on getting two male rats. And... I got them! Their names are Zues and Oreo. Zues is a Black Dumbo Rex and Oreo is a Black Blaze Dumbo (Regular Coat). They are each a month and a half old. They aren't direct brothers, but we're born a day apart and have been cage mates for about 2 weeks or so. I will post pictures when I can, but both of them are camera shy and are constantly moving when I take my camera or phone out. I got them today and already they are ready to crawl up my arm and into my pocket! I am so in love with these guys and hope you give them a warm, HC welcome!

Lovely, hello guys!

Hopefully your breeder will have given you advice but they will need a high protein diet up to 12 weeks old (reducing it from around week 8-12). So things like boiled egg, kale, fish, rice, brown bread, dog kibble and veggies mixed in with their dry food.

Prepare for stinky baby poops hehe

Dont give them any free time, this is your bonding time, letting them know the cage is their safe spot and you are a safe person. I have a big snuggie blanket and hoodies and sit with them on the sofa. Then gradually when they get sed to me let them explore the sofa a little. Id also avoid any tubes etc in the cage atm, they need to know everything is safe and happy

Any questions please ask and sending scritches to your new boys x
