Meet Mushroom Troops

These adorable baby boys are the Mushroom Troops! Here is what would work best for them in their new homes:

-Personality: Curious, Active, Friendly. We will become mellower with age!
-Can live with kids: Yes, we can be handled by gentle, respectful children ages 14+. Adults should be my primary caretaker.
-Experienced rat home: Rat experience preferred, but not mandatory if adopter is able to demonstrate knowledge. Do your research!
-Can live with other rats: Yes! These boys are required to go home with at least ONE of their brothers. Rats are highly social and can generally adapt to living with an existing colony under the guidance of an experienced adopter. This process needs to be slow and structured to avoid conflict and should not be attempted without education on introductions. If considering adding these boys to your existing colony, please remember they should only live with other males or with spayed female rats.
-Litter box trained: Nope, but rats can be trained to use litter pans.
-Bite History: No
-Additional information: These tiny boys were born in foster care when their very pregnant mom was surrendered to WHS. They have been handled daily since birth and are getting more comfortable with people each day. They are still juveniles and will grow more social and confident with daily handling and familiarity with a person. These boys will need a nice roomy (minimum 2 cubic feet of space per rat) cage (NOT a tank) with multiple levels and lots of enrichment. Their diet should consist of free access to a high quality pellet food (like Oxbow essentials) and a small amount of species appropriate fruit/veggies daily. If you are interested in adopting one of these sweet rats, please submit an application to begin the process.
