It's probably just bruxing. They do it when they are happy. Or angry or in pain.

I'm going to assume it's because he's happy then! He doesn't seem to be the other two, in fact he's fast asleep on my lap right now.
Kiwi keeps licking my fingers! I've been accepted, lol

Well, now I have four rats.

The lady who i gave Zander/Frodo to just texted us and told us that the balls are starting to show up, so they came down and showed us, and now I have four rats and they're getting another one for their girl tomorrow.

So now, this original Zander/Frodo is named Black Bear, or Bear for short. Since New Zander looks like a Zander and Original Zander looks like a black bear and I love bears.
So now I have North, Kiwi, Zander, and Black Bear.

Can you get a picture of Black Bear from the belly? Feel free to PM it to me.

Your neighbors will probably have a litter soon if he is a boy...

I'll try to get a picture later tonight. They're exploring their cage again right now.

Since his balls JUST started dropping today, and with some research, that puts him (and Zander) at around 3 weeks, if the research is correct. So they wouldn't be sexually mature yet.

They are not 3 weeks I don't think, based on the pics.

Balls will sometimes drop late. I've heard of them not dropping until 8+ weeks

The pictures do tend to kind of blow them up in size... They're about the size of a gerbil right now, Zander and Black Bear are a little bit smaller than a gerbil.
Ah, alright.

I still don't think they are 3 weeks. I'm not basing it all on size, mainly on the way the features look and everything.

I suppose some could be runts?
Is it possible to tell how old they are? It would be nice to know!

They look closer to 5 weeks then 3 weeks. They can retain and hide their balls at their will, so just becouse you look and dont see them, dont mean they arent there....

about 4 weeks old
