So Licky Rattery

Kansas City's Home of the Happy and Healthy Pet Rat

Breeding Policy

None of our planned breedings are set in stone until the day of conception.  Things happen with rats that are beyond our control and sometimes one of the potential parents may begin to display a trait that makes them unbreedable, or a better qualified breeder rat may become available.  We will make the best decisions that we can so that both we and you get the best ratlets possible.

We will also try to keep this site updated with our current plans and all that we are doing to advance our lines and rattery.

Past Litters

Litter #6 - SLKY-BVR Q'enko x SLKY-BVR Koricancha

Reason/Goal for Breeding:  To further incorporate the Satin coat into this line.  Both of the parents have excellent and rich color to their coats.  Q'enko has a calm demeanor and good looks.  They would have very calm and cuddly babies.  Kancha is a very well-rounded girl.  Her coat is very soft and she is very sociable.

Litter #5 - SGR HypotenuseSLKY-BVR Sacsayhuaman

 

Reason/Goal for Breeding:  To further incorporate Russian Silver into this line.  Also, to do a little bit of related outcrossing to establish the line as our own.  Hyppo has excellent color and good body type.  Sacsayhuaman has an excellent temperament and sweet disposition.  Both rats have very good coloring and substance.  We would like to improve on Hyppo's eyes and Sacsay's tail.
