I got these two beauties, thanks to Dean Goudie who listened to me beg for a year and SCALES Zoo who shipped these guys here.

They are a male whitesided blk rat and a female het. There's a possiblity that the female may be a brindle, as she's a bit unusual looking. Here's hoping!

They are great eaters, inquisitive and have nice docile personalities already!!

It's a shame these are illegal in two provinces, b/c they are such lovely snakes to own.

I LOVE the white sided! It's so beautiful. The color of their heads is neato too.

I had a baby Black Rat that had the personality that people describe Retics having!

Great pics.

I have a proven pair of albinos, the male is a doll, but the female is a bit bitey. I had thought of selling them but they are such beautiful animals I'm not sure I want to part with them!!!

Thanks guys! Hopefully SCALES Zoo post theirs. They have a lovely female whitesided who'z quite a bit bigger than my male.

Whitesideds are way prettier when they're older and the pinky white parts turn white. The only adult whitesided I ever saw (the father of these guys) was absolutely gorgeous, pure black with pure white.

Great looking black rats Katt - love the whitesided!! Hope to see you producing those in the future - one of the benefits of moving to Saskatchewan is that I would be able to get some of those,
