What other traits are rat breeders looking for in dumbo rats?
With dumbo rats, their genetic mutation causes their desired floppy, side-set ears. Breeders have to be careful to watch for rats that have other deformities in their ears which can cause deafness or equilibrium trouble. When breeding dumbo rats, the inside folds of the ear should look the same as a typical rat, only turned further down the side of the head. If you plan to show your dumbo rats in competitions, the ears should be turned at least about 50 degrees from the original rat position, otherwise they are not considered to be a good representation of the dumbo breed.
What do dumbo fancy rats eat?
Your Dumbo will be happy to eat the same as any other fancy rat. Lab blocks that are low in protein are great. Oxbow Regal Rat food is good, but some rats don't like the taste. My Dumbo gets fed Innova Senior Adult Dog Food, as it's natural and low in protein. She LOVES it! You Dumbo needs fresh veggies or fruit EVERY DAY. No citrus for males!
