I'd also find out if you can get her spayed (not sure how that works with rats) We don't really need anymore baby rats. I often see them up for adoption at the spca.:sad:
[edit] This article has some info:http://www.ratlovers.org/articles/pregnant.html and they can be spayed. Good luck. There is quite a bit of info out there, try googling a bit more and let us know how things go.

so then this is the perfect time to start thinking what you're going to do with those rat babies once they mature enough.
