Hi All!! Here is of course the area in which you can post all your questions, stories, etc about the breeding of pet rats!! You might have a question about gestation, or care of your pets whilst pregnant, or perhaps you might like to discuss the different types of breeding set ups people use. You may have a great story to tell... or you might like to advertise for a "stud" male to service one of your girls even!!! And don't be affraid to ask anything... even if you think it might be a silly question!! "After all... if you don't ask... you won't know!!" We learn by asking, so feel free to ask as many questions as you like... and with any luck... before you know it... you will receive an answer!! Many experienced rat breeders use this forum, and are only too happy to share their knowledge.

the come into heat strait away and last about 4 days. female rats can get pregnant from 5 weeks old and male rats can get female rats pregnant at 5 weeks old. but the recomended breding age for rats is 6 months. i hope this is right im going on memory.
