is this where to ask if anyone has experience with their rats tail coming off? I went to say good morning to my babies and one of the boys was chewing (ironically named chew-chew) on Flames' tail! It didn't seem to be bothering flames at all but it freaked me out! I removed flames and isolated him from the others. Anyway. he has lost about an inch and a half off of his tail. I am probably more worried about it than he is! He just drags his stump around like all is well! I am not sure how aggressive to be about cleaning it or to just let him and nature handle it. I still don't know why Chew-chew chewed his tail in the first place! Is something missing from their diet that would cause this behavior? None of my rats have ever done anything like this before and these particular boys have lived together for two plus years. Can anyone help? thank you
