Apologies for lack of posting and response time. I think a lot of us are feeling that mental health drag and I've felt it especially this year.

We've had some major family health issues. Some in and out of the hospital. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, and her treatment has been tough. She's handled each battle better than I have taken it and proven herself stronger than anyone realized. When I say it's been one trial after another, it really has been ceaseless.

There are days I feel like I'm just treading water and all I have the capacity for is taking care of the animals. The page upkeep had to be a secondary priority but I am making a schedule to decrease that burn out. I realized for a lot of the life of this page, I have made myself available seven days a week, often late into the night. Once I sort out the schedule, I'll post it, but likely I'll be taking mon-wed away from facebook, pickups, and setting hours where I'm available. This is a reminder to take care of your mental well being (and reach out to a psychological when you need it - if anyone needs recommendations for one in the area, message me.)

I recieved a few videos this week of adopters sending me their rats they've gotten from me, and that's really brightened my day. Always send them, and message me at any time. I don't want this to sound like I don't want to hear from you all, and the new adopters that are waiting for babies. I do love chatting with you guys and getting updates. It was just that the current system wasn't working, and I needed a break to think about how to fix it. I'll put together some resources that can be located, maybe in a pinned message, for days that I take off. I'll be going through applications and taking a look at the current waitlist. Feel free to reach out to make sure you're on it!

Babies for tax, to hopefully brighten your day! Feel free to post photos and videos of your rats in the comments (even if they're not from me) or share stories about how they've brought you joy.

Much love ❤️
Hailey and the rats here at Beryl Rattery.

Oh the challenges of taking rat photos when the ladies do not want to sit still long enough to get a non blurry picture.

I'll post updated availability tomorrow.

For now here's a sneak peak and some photo bloopers.

Photo sneak peek 👀

I've been on vacation, so apologies for the slower response times! Since being back home I've gotten cages deep cleaned and taken photos of available babies!

I also sent out messages and photos to those on my wait list ready for babies in the near future (a few on my waitlist are set for later dates). If you've sent me a message and havent heard back or put in an application and haven't heard back, shoot me a pm!

If you'd like to put an application in for upcoming babies you can do so here along with review my policies.

Available may babies will be posted tomorrow after those on my waitlist have finalized their picks!
