YEAH!!! Babies everywhere!!! It is definatly Spring!! WB gets the sound of little baby birdy chrips and I get squeakies.

11 is about average, I once had a rat who had 13. My mom's always had 12. Looking at them this morning I can already spot the runt, who may not survive. She is cleaning them right now after allowing me to put her nest back together and recover the scattered babies. I just can't get over how small she is without that bag-o-jellybeans in her tummy.

Oh, and Eliza, my arm is ok. It was my fault Sniff fell off, I was not doing my job. She is the most ungraceful rat in history. She gets on the windowsill and runs back and forth between the blinds and window. When she is ready to go back to the computer desk, instead of jumping the 3 inches down she starts running on the livingroom side of the blinds. She waits for me to move my shoulder to her so she can climb down on me. When I don't move fast enough or don't realize she is there she will walk back & forth until she falls off.

I am obsessed... The babies have sprouted wiskers. They are showing their future colors, 4 black, 2 b&w hooded, 1 beige hooded, 3 light colored... 2 of the black ones look like they have a skin condition, but Boy informed me they are getting their hair. Their ears are formed, but still pinned to their heads. They are responding to us and Daisy doesn't care if we touch them. She is a good mama. It will be hard to get rid of them. We are keeping 2 and 2 are going to a friend, from there I just don't know yet.
