My rat Frankenstein gave birth while i was at work today! had just moved her into a birthing house yesterday, so very good timing on my part.
I haven't wanted to disturb the nest too much, but i have seen two, and either they are as talkative as their mother and grandfather or there are more in there. But now my room is filled with tiny little 'peeping' noises.
