Answer 1

glass. personal experiance. 6 rats, actually. glass is better for cleaning, and is more visual. also, i don't think that any rodent has the strength to bite through glass.

just use a fish tank. works fabulous

Answer 3

Either a cage or a plastic tank

Light ; not easily broken ; easy to clean ;

Glass tank?

easily broken.....

Mostly , the wire cage....

Answer 4

Wire cage is usually the best. Plastic cages, like hamster type stuff can work too. Glass tanks dont have great ventalation, so they tend to harbor diseases easier. I own rats and keep them in a wire cage.

Most of the things on this page would work well

Answer 5

Glass: easy to clean, but holds in odors. Very poor ventilation.

Plastic: ok to clean..can trap odors in the plastic. Gets cloudy over time because of all of the scratches.

Wire: can be hard to clean, may rust. Good ventilation. View does not diminsh over time as with plastic.

Coated Wire: best choice (imo) easier to clean, wont rust. Provides good ventilation, won't hold odors. looks nicer.
