how to make a rat nursery/rat cage

[AlbinoGiraffe123]

thanks so much for making this!! i just finished mine and it works great!!

[etanna]

its not ment to be like a permanent home just temporary/transport so as far as smell goes it should b fine long as u keep it clean

[aegisknox]

Do you find it smelly ? since the only place air go trough is from top...

[MrPoonJab]

hey instead of sanding the lid down you could always use a lighter to melt the edges probably be faster and easier. just a thought

[sobi3579]

Haha your kid in the background is precious.

Thanks for this video. i need a place to keep my 2 baby girls while i introduce them to my 2-year old rat besides a teeny hamster cage.

what are u using to cut the plastic?

[erickaist]

a lot of people need to watch this instead of going out to buy 50- 200 dollar cages for ther furry pets

[WickedlyEpic10]

could somebody make it two levals or three with a bigger boxe and mke it a permanent rat cage

[IceTigerStorm]

@WickedlyEpic10 i know this is really old, but if your still wondering. yes you can, you just have to make sure to wash it alot and that its big enough for them.

Where did you get that wire mesh? I've looked everywhere locally and can't find any like it........

@xiage965

It looks like PVC covered hardware cloth, you can find it in most Home Depots, especially in summer. If you're near a Tractor Supply Store they should have it, some smaller hardware stores should have it. Alternatively look online.... although it can be expensive because of shipping.

Hi, um could you please reply ASAP?! If I wanted to keep my hamster in this for her usual cage would that be okay? Thanks sooooooo much!

[bluepandacars]

what is the size of the rubbermaid container?

[WTZReptiles]

how well does this type of cage work. Could i use this type of cage for like 7 months. This will be one for my rats to live in and another for the babies to be born in.

[suparpowers]

Nice, good job.Very creative...

[airrowhead]

i also know from experence that works better to have 2 rats in one one cage.

One mother feeds durning the day and one durning the nite - they learn to take turns caren for the young...

[TheRatCity]

I thought I was the only one who velcro-ed bottles to cages. Haha. I have a mouse that I keep in a 10 gallon tank and I velcro his bottle to the cage.

[fluffluver]

I can't wait to get my rats

[stealthhamster7]

you should cut a hole in the chicken wire so the mother can get away to sleep because at about a half a week the cubs start shasing the mother orund for milk the mother will not run away because of instict. i know thiis from exsperence.

[etanna]

or you could just take her out to play.....

[RatZoneUk]

@etanna was thinking the same lol, or you could just buy a hamster cage :L there like £20

[etanna]

while this a a nice cage you posted about, that price does not include a water bottle/bedding making mine cheaper still

[etanna]

they are easy enough to make and the cost to ship them or whatever wouldn't be worth people buying them when they are so easily made. so i never thought about it.
