They have been handled since day one, and they are sweet, playful and enjoy being picked up. It&#8217;s hard to photograph them because they are always in motion! They would make amazing pets for first-time or experienced rat owners, as well as kids.<\/p>\n<p>Their moms, Blueberry and Shauna, are bonded and have very different personalities. Blueberry is like a tiny puppy who wants to play. She is super social, able to be picked up, and seems to know her name. Shauna is more shy and skittish. She prefers to be transported in a carrier or hide, rather than to be picked up. She would like to get to know you on her terms. Blueberry can help her to gain confidence. She will need a patient owner who will give her time to gain trust and feel comfortable with humans.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><p><strong>FEMALES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Blueberry (mom)<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/PzTFc7Jv\/Blueberry.jpg\" alt=\"Blueberry\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Shauna (mom)<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/tMjGTjDb\/Shauna.jpg\" alt=\"Shauna\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Angelica<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/DPxMbXyq\/Angelica.jpg\" alt=\"Angelica\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Eliza<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/Z1hcX3c8\/Eliza.jpg\" alt=\"Eliza\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Peggy<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/bgWJSbPj\/Peggy.jpg\" alt=\"Peggy\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Theodosia<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/JwL89rvw\/Theodosia.jpg\" alt=\"Theodosia\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>MALES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Burr<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/JRhV0Xpf\/Burr.jpg\" alt=\"Burr\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hamilton<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/PsB70nhK\/Hamilton.jpg\" alt=\"Hamilton\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lafayette<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/GQSqcg3R\/Lafayette.jpg\" alt=\"Lafayette\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Laurens<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/Ld8853RP\/Laurens.jpg\" alt=\"Laurens\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mulligan<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/YBc1ds5n\/Mullilgan.jpg\" alt=\"Mullilgan\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Boys Together<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/xqGjYstL\/Boys-Together.jpg\" alt=\"Boys-Together\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-video fusion-youtube\" style=\"--awb-max-width:600px;--awb-max-height:350px;\"><div class=\"video-shortcode\"><div class=\"fluid-width-video-wrapper\" style=\"padding-top:58.33%;\" ><iframe title=\"YouTube video player 1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K0AOzKOKiqU?wmode=transparent&autoplay=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay;
