My rats occasionally done that too when i first got them so i bought more cages and when they was pregnant moved them to there own cage, since doing that its never happened again. Maybe worth investing in a another cage before bumping them off.

i must be lucky then, as anything they dont have, which isnt much, they WILL get for me. the rats, all sizes are freshly killed to order.

maybe its disturbance which causes them to eat the babies. do you have the males and females separate to each other, when they are ready to give birth i mean.
