two baby rats trying to run on the wheel at the same time

Two baby dumbo rats trying to run in the wheel at the same time, but it doesn't quite work out as planned. The fun really starts at 0:30.

Usually, rats aren't wheel runners like hamsters. They are to lazy or too clever for this 8P

@Tristan129 yeah I agree. I think they might explore a little as babies, but the novelty wears off pretty quickly.

Just how I feel when I force myself to use the treadmill.

[soysauceandgarlic]

@exeuroweenie Do you run on the treadmill when someone else is on it? ;)

That is a really nice wheel I like how it's kinda closed up.

Did you make it yourself?

[flerfymcflerf098]

my rats figured out how to run side by side on there wheel together and they run on it all tha time tho but i thought rats hated running on wheels

@Tristan129 Sorry, that's not true. I have 6 2 year old rats and they spend huge amounts of time every night running in their wheel. One of my boys quite enjoys stopping suddenly so it swings madly. Even when I'm not in with them I can hear the wheel creaking from the other room :-)

actually, wheels aren't so good in rat cages because they encourage repetetive behaviour. they should really have an open wheel with no gaps to reduce risk of tail trapping.

@soysauceandgarlic LOL no,brilliant idea though.I could let them do all the work.
