I feel bad for him cause you should always keep them with a friend, but he attacks anything besides people that come near his cage. Even my cats! Hahah. I try gething out as much as I can though to make up for the lack of interaction he gets. He goes for him walks and I have him out for a few hours a day. I know it won't be the same for him, but it's better than him injuring another rat.
    Aw cute! Pictures?! What are their names?

    I would get him neutered, I did this with my Apollo and he is SO much happier. I have a post of my pets on here under my fuzzy ( or is it furry? ) family Just an idea ... I had two boys and both got through their neuters wonderfully

    Unfortunately everywhere has rats from Petco to BYB's on craigslist And most are horribly neglected ... Not to mention stores that sell them as feeders

    Not for humans lol ... People like to feed them to reptiles Which is sad ... They are wonderful animals and actually way smarter than the snakes lol.

    But if people did their research it doesn't have to be that way there are many other food sources.

    Ahh good Idea! Don't know how I didn't think of that!
    Where I live its illegal to give live animals as feeders for reptiles/amphibians
