I recently got 2, 8 month old male ratties. They are very friendly, and are used to being with other ratties. In about 4 weeks I will be getting another boy, he will be about 4.5 weeks when I get him. I have never intro'd rats before, and have a few questions...
1. How old should the new baby be (or size/weight ect) before I can introduce?
2. If the new guy is comming from a reputable breeder, who I know cares well for her rats, and they are healthy, is quarentine necessary?
3. Do most males get along with others (intact males)?
4. How should i begin intro's?
Anyone's advice is welcome, and greatly appreciated.
