They remind me. Newborn BRB's are nippy, sometimes VERY nippy. I started pulling the Wilma x Fred babies from individual tubs back into a communal tub for a group picture and like always several nipped me. I stopped when I realized not only were they nipping me, they were nipping at each other. Only six in the large tub and when I opened it four practically flew out including one escape to the floor. So, change of plans, I put each in a individual deli cup.
Sexing was also a clear reminder. As I selected babies to sex, of course I started with the more colorful ones and of course most of them bit me. The real reminder was that the more colorful ones are typically males. Example being the first four I sexed - all males. I was getting a little worried I had a male heavy litter. Nope, ultimate count was 6.8 babies.
