Question, are those high whites?

Can you blame them? Those things smell absolutely delicious. I've always wondered what they tasted like.

I see a Dumbo Siamese, Black Blazed/Banded, Mink Veriberk, Beige, Fawn Hooded (maybe Bareback), Dumbo Black Dalmatian, Champagne Hooded and a Black Self or Irish.

The Black Blazed/Banded definitely looks like a high risk, high white. She has a bi colored tail, indicating she was supposed to be a hooded. Which means, she has white where she shouldn't have any, which is why she is high risk.

The Odd Eyed Black Dalmatian is also high risk for megacolon.

In general, most high whites are at risk for carrying megacolon and almost all odd eyes carry megacolon. However, there are breeder lines of high whites that do not carry the high white, megacolon gene.

If you breed them, which I'd be weary to, I'd breed them to a self male/female (Solid Colored).

I've rescued a few megacolon litters and it is one of the most horrifying illness I've seen in an animal. I've watched dozens of litters die very slowly because the owner thought their rats would have pretty, fancy babies.

With that being said, very nice and healthy looking crew you have! :D

She has less white than a hooded. Berks, irish, etc all have white on their tails. IMO, she looks more like a mismarked/vari irish.

Either way, she has white where she shouldn't. The Blaze shouldn't be there on a veriberk or veri-irish. She is considered a High White/High Risk. I've been breeding PET rats for the past 12 years, and very much involved with breeding for health, not markings.
