My name is Gena. I am completely new to the rat world. I have my first two babies. One I convinced a breeder to let me have. He was raising them for snake food. He would only allow me one and told me it was male. Yesterday I adopted a male about the same age from petsmart. I have now discovered with obvious visual evidence that me newbie was very male... and now my original one was not. So now.. I have a pair. Lol I am learning as I go and have a million questions and have decided the breeder was the wrong one to ask...
