How do you tell the difference between a dwarf rat and a "normal" rat? I bred a litter last year and the babies are now 6 months old. The boys are huge (well, normal sized) but the girls are tiny. I know there's obviously difference between the two sexes body builds/sizes, but even comparing the tiny girls to their mum and aunt there's still a big difference.
I managed to weigh and measure out some of the girls and they're about 6 inches without their tail and weigh 200 grams. I know they're not fully grown as of yet, but was wondering if there's a possibility of them being dwarfs?
Thanks guys n gals!
