She's definately not pregnant.. But it's good that your concerned, you do care for your rats :) Just make sure that (i know this time was because you wanted to show her belly) when you generally pick them up in cuped hands.. From under them, don't grab them from their backs because it's instinctual that they think you're going to eat them like a bird would as they pick them up like that xD
she do looks pregnant little over the weight do she get hungrey alot and act wierd if she do then it will take a few month to give birth so be careful
she seems to or might absolutely be pregnant, pet stores dont seperate their rats like they should. Also you need to make sure that she doesnt have any vaginal discharge signifying "Pyometra"" which is a fatal uterus infection. other little things that you can tell with pregnant rats- i breed them- is them eating more than usual, towards the end of a pregnancy you might be able to see babies move inside her as she is lying still or laying on her back......let me know if you have any more concern
@Katekelly2 hey thanks for the comment but it turned out that she was not pregnant she was just a little big but she is doing great and is just a pig when it comes to eating but thanks a gain for the comment

Considering this was her third week I am assuming you have some baby rats on your hands now bc she definitely seems pregnant to me! :)
