im just not sure if i want a boy or girl

i want a clam rat that wont be all over the place that will stick with me and be calm and listen!

so whats better for me??

Answer 1

you want a male male rats are more calm and female are a little more playful and dont get as big AND REMEBER GET MORE THAN ONE!!!

Answer 2

you should definitely get 2 male rats! male rats are much more calm than females and will just hang out with you. females love to explore and run everywhere! sometimes it does change girl rats' attitude. some will get less social when in heat and some will get even crazier, but also some just stay the same.

Answer 3

i would get a female. its true they go into heat every 4 or 5 days but that doest really matter when they are on there own. It doesnt change there mood or how they act either.

but if you are going to get a rat then please get 2. they get very lonley on their own and when you asleep in bed they are active. So it wouldnt be very fun for the rat to be on its own when its active.

hope i helped.

Answer 4

for you, you should probably get a male but please get 2 males(brothers) as rats are very social and need a companion
