My bubs have just turned 4 weeks old and they are all wrestling and becoming rather mature. Nobody nurses from Mom anymore and they all eat seeds, fruit, yogies, lab block and are skilled at drinking from the water bottle. My question is, is now a good time to find them homes?
I have found a very good local pet store who is willing to take the bubs and Mom from me and sell them to new (non-reptile owning) owners. I have long since made the decision to not keep Mom, as she does not seem to like me and doesn't keep along with her sister, whom I am keeping in another tank.
I would be keeping the 2 boys I am keeping in a medium Superpet dealie until I order my Ferret Nation 141 and supplying them with water bottle, soy milk, seeds, lab block, fruit, veggies and miscellaneous treats such as Greenies and Yogies.
Are the bubs okay to leave me now? They will be with mom and not placed with other older rats at the store.
A positive response would be best because I cannot afford to keep them in my home much longer. They consume a large amount of food and my budget can't handle this much more.
