I have had a ton of rats but none have been as special as watching these guys here.
Grace's babies were born on december 20th,2012 7 babies. Roo, Liam, Willow and Hippo were born to this litter.
Faiths babies are our christmas eve babies. 11 babies born.
Noel's babies were born on December 28th, 2012 8 babies, Lily, Hopper, Barrett, and Turtle were born to this litter
On December 28th 2012 Noel was set for a emergency spay when my tears the whole way and my vets refusal to do it with her being that full term. Partially I think he knew I could not live with it and that was all I needed to hear honestly. She had her babies that night. I didnt want 3 litters but she was full term and it really drove me nuts to think of what i was doing. 8 babies were born but 2 passed away early on. Our little Barrett who we fought to save and just couldnt. I am so glad that he didnt do it because we gained our 3 babies hopper, lily, turtle from this litter.
It was apparent early on that something was wrong.
The beat the odds and made it to a year with little or no problems. Just minor birth defect issues such as the boys have their willies stuck out all the time but they keep it clean so i dont have to do anything with it anymore. They pull them back in on occasion but not for long.
So happy birthday to my wee ones and to Hippo, and to the ones dsptch911 has :)
:redcake:
Here is to hoping we make it to two :)
