:lol: Nah, he's a big boy, but part of it may be him wriggling about while I tried to measure him. Definitely bigger than 6" though. :lol:

A1APassion, I believe you have a small opossum and not a rat. Just thought you'd like to know!

Re: looking for rex's

I have one rattie rex boy. He is so handsome, squishy, healthy, and extremely friendly. I got him free from my local pet store here in Prescott, AZ.


I am on a waiting list for February - May for a pair of dumbo rex, hairless, or double rex rattie boys from a breeder in Bullhead City, AZ. She is our ONLY reputable breeder of rats in AZ. She also breeds many other coat types and now has MANX (tail-less) and Dwarf ratties.

Amanda (the breeder) is an extremely nice person, although I am not sure that she would adopt out to you because you have snakes, no offense taken, though...I hope.

He is a huge boy

I see him everyday nearly all day long but every time I walk in the room I'm like..."you're a big rat!!"

He's such a lover... one knows they have been rat-kissed when he starts licking.

Re: looking for rex's

That's my one regret about having female rats is I really like those big boy rats.

Re: looking for rex's

There are opossum marked rats. One of our local breeders breeds them, lol. Don't know if you were joking or not cj but I just thought you'd like to know, ^^. That tail does look awefully ringy tho A1, lol,

Re: looking for rex's

Re: looking for rex's

rexes are SO cute!
a breeder who lives about a 45 min drive from me had a litter of baby ratties born sept.28, and i REALLY want the russian blue capped dumbo rex. (that's a mouthful!)

that is, if:

a) the rex was a girl
b) i could actually meet up with the breeder
c) my mom would let me get a third rat.

-sigh- i can always dream! 8)
