It's really up to what you want in a rat. Females are more active then males. But males are more cuddly then females. Females I've heard are better then males for first time rat owners ,but I got males and they are really awesome. I have never had females so I don't know but from what I've read. Males leave a little sent trail and little dots. Females go in heat. I would go with male rats but i would see a female rat owner too.

∙ 13y agoIt depends what you want to do with it. Females tend to be more active and males tend to enjoy being cuddled...Females do not urine mark as much as males, but urine marking can be controlled by neutering the male.
