  • Why is it mean to feed the rats to snakes? Snakes have to eat too. As long as you put the rats/mice to sleep first it should be no issue. Just like us eating a hamburg.

  • Thank you for not feeding the babies but are you going to feed the momma?

  • its mean to have rats or mice as snake food

  • beautiful

    

  • i have a rat that looks just like yours! albinos are very cute arnt they

    

  • my bearddie would love to eat thesee

  • @laughterispossible..just watch tht the babies r fine and wateve u do DON'T TOUCH THEM and make tht the mom is comfortable and not disturbed or stressed when in labor hoped I helped

  • @ friendsdoge. They don't come from their butts.... Just letting u know kid :/

  • does almost anmimals babies have to come frome thier butts

  • I purchased 2 rats the 6th of August, both around the same age/size, and its been about 20 days since i got them. one of them however has gotten extremley big in the tummy and her nipples are swollen and her tail is swollen, she is starting to shove all of her bedding to one corner of the cage. Is she pregnant or not, im not sure. If she really is, does anyone have any advise for me?

  • That cage is fine size for a "maternity" cage....but buy a larger one for them (if you don't already have one)....Try your local freecycle.

  • i'm glad you are keeping them as pets. Rats don't deserve to be food.

  • my pet rat gave birtht o like 13 babies in one day

  • just lookin @ those rats got me grossed out

  • what was that! was it eating the babies they look so dirty and sick...

  • My rat gave birth on the 20th to 13 beautiful healthy pups. new life is so fragile and beautiful! enjoy it while it lasts!

  • ARGH that is so cute i have to 2 remale rats and i want them to both have babies at the same time. is that ok if they r in the same cage when they give birth?

  • @bbtastic1 The momma rats won't eat the other's babies but will probably try to steal them from each other, and that might be too rough for the new babies. So it's better to keep them separate if you want them both preggers at the same time.

  • cuties!! I had 2 rats Sendai and Tokyo but sadly Tokyo died, we got Sendai some friends to keep him company, two more girls named Tika and Ruby, Tika also died, soon after Sendai got sick and he died. Now we only have Ruby she looks just like the rat in this clip.

  • i totally feel like cryin this is amazing but my rat died last week i had a mega rat too check out my vids...

  • Rats are the best pets out there. My fiancee and I have five of them and we love them so much. We had six but our Bella passed away a month and a half ago.

  • Awwe what a good momma :)

  • thank you for not using them as feeders. my pet rat strawberry who passed away two weeks ago was a feeder rat but i saw her and just had to bring her home with me. i am glad you see that although snakes need to eat, that rats are living being with more than one purpose.

  • Is the tail of the baby coming out first?

  • yay!

  • wus she bitting off her ambilicle coird?

  • @nutellaaddict13 they eat the placenta.

  • I breed mine for reptile food and for sale, i keep mine very well kept. They live outside in outdoor enclosures. I treat mine probably better than my reptiles, lol. One of my female breeders is wired-wavy hair and she has wavy-haired babies. I always have a 'lack Starburst , white footed ' Ratlet in each litter?

  • well ithink thats nice you didnt feed them

  • It would be so sad if they became feeders!!

  • My rat gave birth to 7 babies on April 23 2010. Cream started when i go home from schooland she had one baby rat till 11 and then 2 and then 3 and then when i woke up she gave birth to the rest i was exciting and cream loves her babies so much shes a cream hod rat and daddy is a hairless rat so ill post a video of birth to 21 daays when i get a chance

  • @jeffdell91 also i will be putting them in a bigger cage when they are older

  • @jeffdell91 Congratulations to your pet rat. What is her name?

  • ugh the cage must suck to clean with the blood

    (awesome video though!)

  • YAY! I'm so glad that Momma and babies didn't become feeders. Rats are such great pets! :)

  • wow that is one fat rat! lmao :p

  • all of you idiots stop fighting on a rat giving birth vid!!! haha losers!!!

  • kick it

  • yay they didnt die!!! from that bad ssnake!!

  • :) :)

  • how many were  born?

  • i dont no ill count and tell you once i got go and kill the disease infested little fuckers

  • ummmmmmmmmmmmm, your not the one who made this video, how do u know?

  • because im gona go were the little fucker lives and torture it

  • and how you gonna do that? do you even know this person ? and stop using fuckers! its plain annoying!

  • damn ur a retard

  • not as much as a damn retard as you. you jerks think its soooo good to call people bad words and they're not even doing anything! rats are not fuckers, and do u even know what that means , your the f**k*r!?!?!?!?!? sheesh , you think people who go on youtube are smart and not as dumb a you.

  • dude....U fail

  • @smartygirlygirlmel .........So your a lesbian right

  • idk..................

  • the reason i am wathing this is my rat peaches is going to have babies to

  • how did you tell that your rat was geting ready to give birth? i think my rat is about to give birht right now but i dont know for sure so i would like to know before i get to excited! lol

  • I've witnessed many rats giving birth considering the fact I used to breed them.You shouldnt put rats in cedar shavings,they can get breathing problems easily,keeping them out of that will prevent this.Nice video:)

  • eww

  • ???what do you think.?!

  • haha...funny joke! XD

    er...you were joking, right?

  • BLOOD! AHH!

  • aww! my rat just had babies today! its so exciting!!! i want to hold them but i've been told to wait a few days before handling them...

  • i have a snake as well with two rats also. expecting rat pups soon :) . parents names are Wilbur and Honey

  • aww :)

    Is the mother gonna get eaten O.o ?

  • buy a bigger cage plz its far 2 small

  • They were used as feeders

    they wouldn't need so much room if their gonna die pretty soon/

  • Don't want big cage for birth.

  • And for the record, Carefresh is just as bad and can carry mites, and is fairly dusty. Fleece liners are a great choice. Although carefresh is higher up their, its not the best.

  • Lol. If you freeze carefresh [like you're SUPPOSED to] it gets rid of all mites, and dust.....

    Learn up.

  • I was saying its JUST AS BAD ;)

  • Actually not all woodchips are bad. Aspen is just fine for rats. There are no natural odors in it so it does just fine for their respiratory system.

  • woodchips arent good for birthing though it can scratch the little ones :(

  • why is the snake in there with the rats?

  • PLEASE take them off the woodchip. It kills!! Use some paper litter but not woodchip. It really is the worst thing you can do for them. There are many paper cat litters, and some good rat litter - carefresh for instance. I'm so glad you are not feeding them to a snake!

  • I agree i use carefresh for my rats. The wood will cause respiratory infections

  • Aspen is safe, and besides that, carefresh is dusty as all hell, and has killed many rats via respiratory infections. Liners and potty training are always best.

  • I like to use shredded newspaper. Its cheap and its safe. The carefresh made such a mess and it smelled horrible if it got wet or soiled.

  • you should feed her water in a bowl and puppy food and/or wheat cereal. wait 1 month to wean them.

  • How Many Did She Have?

  • omg...this is so cute...i've had like 5 or 6 nests already but secretly i hope to get one soon... watch my pet rat video and you'll know what i mean

  • i love it when rats have babies i just dont like to see blood all over the cage. it really scares the crap out of me then i see the babies and im like oh thank god

  • is the momma eating the baby :C?

  • no, shes eating the afterbirth lol

  • what's the afterbirth?

  • placenta.

  • shes just getting on with it , if only it were so simple for humans

  • Congratulations Mama Rat

  • robertapardo88 you are a dick y leave a coment sayn stuff like that? if you dont like rats y you wachen it?

  • Comment removed

  • @2micky2 natural selection? would have happened in the wild anyway.

  • @2micky2 Pinkies dont do much damage to reptiles.

  • rats babies taste really good! :D specially in my mcdonnalds double cheese burger !

  • what? shes havin babies. we do that too thats hoqw u were born.

  • domestic rats are not diseased or dirty, only wild ones. Why do ppl watch videos just to fight about them :S

  • aw rats look so cute when theyre giving birth\! my first mommy rat i put her in a big plastic tank thing (for indoor rabbits i think) the bar spacing at the top was huge so she could easily come out for a wander from time to time but i figured it was still better to keep them in that cuz my other cages are really big and have bars right round not just on top but then mommy rat started taking the babies 1 by 1 out of the cage and put 1 in my wardrobe but i put it back so then she just

  • took them all onto my bed and started hiding them under the covers lmao so cute! but then another one had babies on the top level of a jenny cage and didnt even clean them or anything! she just left them covered in globby stuff. although in her defence she had 18 babies, the other one only had 5 :P

  • Beautiful...why cant anyone just appreciate such a beautiful thing and QUIT FIGHTING! There is no point...so just either enjoy it, or dont watch the video!

  • I have four rats love them to bits. And I'm glad that you didn't feed the rat to your snake. Feeding live rats to pet snakes can be dangerous because even though you might think the snake is bigger and stronger a rat could do some serious damage to your snake. So it's better to feed your snake already dead frozen food. Safer for your pet.

  • ya those are living things too. what a horrible way to go, being brought into a world blind and def then suddenly a huge snake you can even see comes around and swallows you whole! everyone deserves a lifetime

  • Yeah to the one who likes hamsters not rats WHY stupid idiot its the same damn thing they re not dirty your parents are stupid! and apparently very up themselves and its cruel to feed that to the snake btw i dont seee why you cant give em saussages cause i know you can i had a pet snake your all full of bolox tbh :)
  • i never could do the whole rat as a pet thing i was raised thats rats are dirty and disgusting. but i love hamsters o.o

  • haha lol on you!

  • i love rats (:

    me and my mate lou are breeding oursss

    :D

    x

  • any luck on babies?

  • I like snakes and rats

  • well hsavjani rats dont bring misery actually, only the wild types can cause problems, there is a huge difference between domestic rats and wild one's, maybe do some research, lovely video by the way, glad you decided not to use them as feeders :)

  • That's an educated response. Rats actually are pretty clean, and can make good pets. It's only when they breed uncontrollably that they become pests.

  • I'm going to keep rats when I'm older now!

    Who knows? I might be a rat breeder? :P

  • you shouldnt be a rat breeder unless u have too, cuz there r a lot of cruel breeds...

    great vid btw, im glad the rat isnt being fed to a snake :)

  • i just got 2 new rats from a pet store that was mixed genders about 4 days ago and ones stomache seems to be kind of hard and full. i put toilet paper in its hide house and the last 2 mornings there has been light light red barley noticable red splotches alover the toilet paper. is this a sighn of pregnancy?

    please comment back 5/5

  • Cute momma.

  • Yummy placenta!

  • Chinese food.

  • cant beleive people eat them

  • People dont eat them, they feed them to there pet snakes. Sad but true.

  • i saw people eating them on tv, i think they fried them :s

  • There are places in the world where people eat rats. I've seen it, they skewer them and roast over a fire kind of thing

  • why do people give you a 'thumbs down'??

    what else are you gonna feed your snake with> salad?

    I myself have five pet rats. i know it's sad, but you have to make a decsision. snake or rat.

  • I agree. It's not as though the feeders are abused before they are fed.

  • some people eat them is wut i read in a book called rat attack

  • Did you keep the mother aswell?

  • Im glad to hear that these ones ended up being pets and not food!

    And thanks for posting the vid, I missed my Merry giving birth both times.. So now I have a better idea of what was involved..

    Hope you got them better bedding than sawdust tho-they have very sensitive respiratory tracts-and the sawdust isnt good, hope you enjoy keeping rats-its been very rewarding for me!!

  • anyone else notice how animals handle births so much better than humans? you dont hear them screaming like people do, even though they have to deliver the babies themselves.

    people suck..i want to be a rat :P lol

  • Rats can emit sounds at a high pitch not audible to human ears. So how do we know if they aren't crying, or the female rat screaming profanties.

  • lol yeh they could be but generally when theyre in a lot of pain they squeak in a way we can hear.

  • lololol!

  • wow...amazing,,,

  • aww cute babies the mama looks like minez named Raven :)

  • Mmmmmm snake food.

  • Those babies are adorable. Hope theyre doing well.

  • cool... but its kinda bloody

  • she looks like my gurl ill try to catch her giving birth too!!

  • Omg there big babies, poor mummy.

    But they are beautiful and will be loving pets.

  • Wow that was really big babies! My rats have never given birth to so big babies! Really cute ^^

  • Its just given birth xXPRiNC3s; Just like human females bleed !

  • She's eating sausages!

  • how cute! i had a mouse that had babies but she only had 2 lol but they were cute! and i know that she didnt eat any stillborns cus when she was preggie she had 2 lumps on her belly

  • how does that make us lame?

  • wtf? rats are amazing pets!

  • good for you.

    heres what lame stands for:

    L: lime

    A: Apples

    M: Mango

    E: Each Fruits!

    So HahHahahaHaha Ha HA

    they are not fags so hahahaha again!

    Rats are CUTE! HEHEHE and yor a meanie McMeanie pants so ha

  • When will people ever learn that pet rats do not spread disease, just because their wild form does? In many European countries, wild dogs and cats are a HUGE problem, but no one calls pet dogs and cats filthy, just because of that. Pet rats are lovely, intelligent animals. I cuddle and kiss my rat boys a lot, and I've never been sick because of that!!

    I think she's a pretty mommie. ^^ I'm glad to read that you keep her as a pet now!

  • My pet rat is due today, and i kiss her all the time. when she climbs into my shirt, sometimes her tail goes into my mouth lol. they are actually the cleanest out of the rodents.

  • So true! They spend most of their day just cleaning themselves or each other. Good luck for your rat and her baby, I hope they're allright! :)

  • yea well in Africa you are a bit savage !!

  • It's not lame to care about others instead of being a barbaric asshole and murdering them.

  • Lol, thats right,lol

  • I'm so glad you're keeping them as pets. If you watched that rat give birth and then fed them to a snake that would just be horrible. They really do make wonderful pets.

  • WELL DONE!

    Im so glad you decided to keep them as pets.

    :O Rodent lovers need to face reality? Who wants to own a snake anyway?

  • Is the momma rat eating her baby or something?

  • I know it looks like it! lol But she's just cleaning them.

  • i have had rats and i also have a snake. i love my rats and i think the snake is a very cool pet but i'm very conflicted about feeding the snake rats. i feel a bit better when using the frozen snake feeders but i guess there's no resolution.

  • I have 2 rats and my Momma Rat had given birth last week. The baby rats are just like yours. So cute!!!!

  • I hope demigod8 gets eaten by a snake. Get the snake to hunt for the mice instead of sticking it in a tank with the snake, otherwise you'll just have a fat lazy snake! I don't see the appeal of owning a snake. You can't play with it, hug it, teach it tricks etc... it's just a tool to look tough. I am biased as I have 9 rats, so each to their own. Feed it Hamsters, they're evil bitey creatures lol!

  • I totally agree with you I have 6 rats and my friend owns a snake, I HATE it when she talks about how she feeds it. I don't understand why hamsters are more popular than rats, they are really mean and not that bright. I know if the rats had shorter tails they would be more popular sigh...Snakes are also extremely privative and it can never love you back, it would even eat the owner if it were big enough.

  • hamsters are more popular because everyone things of rats as discusting creatures as they are wild scavangers well the ones that aren't pets. but they are fantastic creatures and snakes suck.

  • i dont no everyones obsessed with mice and hampsers when rats are friendly plaful social and the least likly rodent to bite

  • I recently acquired a breeding pair of rats so that I can feed their offspring to my two snakes.

    I will not be feeding live as I feel it is cruel to the rats. They will always be prekilled, there is less risk to the snake and more humane for the rat.

    I know they eat live in the wild, but if you really wanted them to have the most natural habitat you wouldn't own a snake at all.

    To all the rodent lovers you need to face reality.

    I love rodents too but I also know my snake has to eat.

  • You don't have to own a snake, imagine if you were in the rats shoes how would you feel then. A snake has no personality, you just enjoy playing god you sicko.

  • Snakes definately have personalities! They are sentient beings too!

  • The miricle of birth. The babys are cute, I must say. I hope this wasn't on purpose...

  • Good on you for not feeding them to the snakes :)

  • What are you thinking on ? poor babies and poor mother, Go get something bigger with Paper inside Not flice. omg

  • that comment was to demigod8

  • Dude! don't keep em on wood shavings you'll give em health issues oO... Use dust free cat litter

    Like biocat or some other simlar

    or use what i do ripped up card board (sold especially for rats in our pet store_

  • yes good for the rat !!!

  • I mean, snakes have to eat and everything, but I prefer feeding my snake frozen mice. It's better for both the mouse and the snake.

  • THANK YOU!!!!! i was at the peetstore the other dayand looked at a rat and it survived and killed the snake it was supposed to be fed to so its better. Thank you for having commen sense

  • I'm so glad you are going to keep them, feed the snake something else!
