Description

I've been curious about African soft fur rats for a while now, and for the first time I saw them for sale in the petshop in Columbia. (As much as I dislike the petshop, I only went in there to check their prices on salt licks.)

I decided to see if I could handle one of them, and I did get nipped, but not bitten, by one of the younger females. They don't like to be handled, but these two don't bite, and I can touch them and mess around with them in their cage. They aren't really that aggressive as people describe them, and in all honesty, act more like hamsters personality wise.

They seem quite healthy, but will be in quarantine for two weeks. If they work out, I think I'll be breeding these guys instead of mice. African soft fur rats smell so much better.
