Britta's babies

I forgot to post about Britta the female rat having babies. You may remember that we took in 20 rats and there were 3 females mixed in with the 17 males. We did seperate the 3 girls from the boys immediately. But, it seems that Britta was already pregnant. She had her babies on Saturday , March 3rd. It is tough to tell how many there are, they are in a baby pile in the nest Britta made. She has been a diligent Momma. The babies seem active, pink and healthy. I will update as they grow up and when I can tell how many there are. When they are old enough , they will be adoptable.
