10 day old Rittens!
By: Mrs Rat Date: February 27, 2021, 11:03 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Our Lilith gave birth to 18 babies 10 days ago. We lost two at
about day 5, found one dead and off the nest, the second one
there was no sign of the following morning so she would have
taken back and passed on the nourishment to the survivors from
the body.
We're keen to see how the colours turn out as we haven't had a
couple of them in any other litters. Mum is doing so well to
keep 16 alive. Their eyes will be open in 4 days then they will
be into everything, including solid food.

Mum is agouti which is kind of wild rat colour. Dad is dove
which is very light beige with pink eyes, his eyes are actually
black but you can see the pink in certain angles and camera
flashes. I'll post pictures of the parents when I have more
time...
Here is mum Lilith on the tree and dad Nacho meeting his babies
for the first time a couple of days ago.

They are doing really well. Mum is over it, they're getting too
big to all feed at once. They're just shy of 4 weeks old and are
at the fun stage, super friendly, open the door and you get
swarmed with warm fuzzies ;D
The video below I started recording too late, they were playing
on the couch and I added mum then started recording, it's like
the Benny Hill show when Lilith turns up lol
