Now Available For Adoption 🐭
Please note: not everyone of these girls will be available as some of these mice will be kept as keepers as we only breed to continue our lines and improve with each generation.

Another day socialising and handling the babies, nearly 4 weeks old. Halfway there until ready for their new homes.
Lola Coming To Say Hi!
Attempting to do the daily water and food checks tonight but someone just wants lots of love and affection and to say hello. She’s such a friendly and affectionate girl, I love this little girl so much. Can’t believe she’s now 20 months old, where has the time gone.
Lola is the original dam to a lot of our lines (I held back 5 of her daughters from her very first litter and 1 son in hopes to continue her amazing personality and health).
Lola is a grandma (Granddaughter named Abby - who is so sweet and docile and very large chunky girl) and Lola is soon to be a great grandma hopefully if our next pairing is successful! 🥰
This is one example of the ideal type of temperament we are continuously working towards and why I do what I do. This was taken roughly only just one week after being adopted by a lovely customer of ours who gave us permission to post this video on our page.
Before being adopted, they were already coming straight to the cage door to say hello only at around 5-6 weeks old, whenever I entered the room with limited amount of handling given prior (too much handling can mask natural temperament we find - important things to know and be aware of from a breeders perspective when working out future pairings).
The mumma’s we still own (Daphne and Luna) and will try to get one more litter from them which will be our next planned pairings before they retire (which will be their second litter of their lifespan).
GUIDELINES WE FOLLOW WHEN BREEDING RATS:
- Minimal age to breed a doe should be 5 to 6 months old (to ensure she is healthy and robust and has a good amount of weight on her).
- Minimal age to breed a buck should be 9 to 12 months old (IMO to help rule out hormonal aggression as this can appear in males up until the age listed above).
- Doe to ideally have no more than 2 litters in lifespan with at least 3 months break between litters to regain weight and condition.
- Buck not to be overbreed to ensure he able to maintain healthy weight and condition.
- Not to be bred after 12 months if she has never produced a litter.
- Not to be bred after 15 months if she has had one litter prior.
- Babies to be weaned at 5 weeks, boys to be removed to reduce chance of pregnancy. Girls to stay in with mums for further nursing.
- Boys introduced to our adult male rat residents to help gain confidence and social skills.
PS. I will be having major surgery in October this year, so just a heads up in advance that the Rodentry may be closed around this period of time for approximately 4 weeks.
