Baby Rats "age to re-home them"

[pinkyandthebrain]

I have 3 week old babies who are tearing around the cage lol..

What age can I find new home's for my baby rats?

Also what age can I put the boy babies (I am keeping) in with my exsisting rats (they are older males (around 5-6 months old)...

Thank you

They need to be separated by sex at about 4 1/2 weeks. So really any time after that it is fine to get them into new homes. But i think it would be best to keep them with you until they are a little older and more able to handle a large change like that. I think 6-8 weeks old.

I'm not sure what is a good age to introduce them to your other guys is tho sorry.
