Need Help Picking A Pet Rat-I PICKED HIM OUT!!!

[Honeycomb]

I can't see pics, but I'd definitely say both. When in doubt, always both of them!
You already have some older ones, so if you get both of those at the same age, that would be great!
Ohhhhh, I miss having rats .....

They are wonderful, aren't they?  I have long admired the cuties in your sig.

Rats are so fun! I voted for Grunkle but I think either option would be great! Or get both!

I had to also go with Grunkle Stan. (I love himmie/siamese coloration.)

Did you decide? Have been following and waiting to see lol

I'm going over this weekend to make a choice and take him home with me.  I still haven't decided.  Grunkle seems so sweet but Cipher is so beautiful.  I am hoping one of them will give me a sign.  I'll def post on Monday!  Thanks for following, I get invested in stuff like this too

It looked like Grunkle won the poll but I took Cipher home with me <3  Grunkle went to a nice couple wearing pony shirts so he will be well loved too!  Thanks to all that helped with this choice.

Sadly one of my rats isn't taking to little Cipher.  I tried bathtub intros as well as using homemade vanilla extract to mask scent.  I hope I can sort out the drama because it is so stressful and I just want all my little buddies to be happy!

How lovely for the both of them. But don’t give up about your little guys. I’m positive they will become friends soon enough. It just might be a little new guy aggression. I have no idea how you’re supposed to introduce rats to other rats safely. But if it’s anything like dogs, let your other eat know you still love him. Let him eat first and stuff I guess. Do rats have a social hierarchy? Just don’t treat this newcomer like the new alpha I guess. That’s one way to store trouble...

[heathersmoo]

Yes, they do have a dominance hierarchy.  The rat having issues is rather odd and doesn't really act like a normal rat about things which makes it harder.  I'm going to try another intro tonight.  The new guy seems to be getting on well with my other rat but they still have a ways to go.  I can't wait to watch everyone snuggle happily together.

I went back to step one and started another reintroduction and that seems to have worked.  Thanks again, everyone, I am so happy!
