It’s been a while since I’ve had young rats! I think I’m out of practice. People I got them from had no clue. They also had no clue on age. 😩 They are bathing and have a little longer face, so I’m thinking 5-8 weeks. I have them separate from my male rat for now. I’ve used AFRMA’s photo...

I got two feeder baby rescues two weeks ago and am having a really hard time telling what gender they are. I cannot find nipples but feel one might be a boy and one a girl. Please help!!

I just wanted some other opinions from more experienced people in the rat community on whether or not they are all female! They all look female to me from what I've researched and no balls have dropped or become even slightly visible. I was not told the age, but I assume 5-6 weeks. The local...

Hi everyone So i was told I have 2 girl rats, however i’ve just checked 3 weeks in on pepper and i’m not too sure, but i’m a new rat mum so i wouldn’t know Pickles is currently in heat and pepper keeps trying to mount her, pickles is kicking her away and stuff and not letting it happen but i...

I brought home two girls last week, and they are doing great! However, I want to make sure that one of them is for sure a female. I know a good sign is…well..a lack of huge balls. And the females have nipples of course. Rosie lacks the testicles, but she also seems to lack nipples? Maybe it’s...

Hi! I'm a new rat owner and I got 3 young females not long ago. The issue is, something in me isn't 100% sure one of them is a female. They're still very skittish so I can't get an in depth look but I got some pictures and tried comparing them to what a male and female are supposed to look like...

We recently bought a friend for our daughter's rat. She has a female so we specifically asked for a female rat. Just want to verify the new little friend is female.

Sorry for such bad quality. I’m assuming the top one is a boy and the bottom is a girl, I just have no experience and would like a second opinion!

Hello, I got 2 rats from a pet shop 4 weeks ago. Ive never had rats before and I was told they were boys. I didnt have a preference as long as they were the same sex, and other than the initial look at them (to ensure that they were the same), I didnt really pay attention. They had 'bumps' on...

Hi! Just brought home three new rats, about a month old according to where we got them from, and supposedly all male. However, one I am not so sure. The others have already developed testes but one hasn’t. I don’t think the spacing between urethra and anus is wide enough to indicate a female...

we bought three rats as males, all the same age, but two have visible testes and one doesn't. he doesn't look quiet female though, either, as according to the guides on sexing i've been looking at. please share your thoughts!! if he is female we have to return him to the seller ASAP to prevent...
