Mary Jane
Mary Jane is my favorite rat. She is now gone! She was sadly put to sleep due to an impacted molar that got terribly infected and was not getting better after 4 months of treatment. Later it was found out she had a bacterial infection from uncleaned grain from a feed store. It was a gram negative bacteria. Several of my rats suffered from the same fate at the time. I stopped using grain after that...She was a strong rat and very well could have lived another year, but the infection began to take over her entire face.
All of my beloved American blue rats come from MJ. She is the sweetest rat I have ever seen. She gave me 3 perfect litters. Her kids are, Whimsical Beauty, Star Dust, Cama Ziggy and Cama November. Whim and November now have babies of their own as well! I will always have her line in my rattery as long as they all stay sweet and healthy like they all are. She has the perfect large body and bone structure with that big blocky head I love. So do her kids and grand kids and great grand kids. I feel fortunate to have her and her many family members, and I have very tender feelings for them. My plans with her line is to improve on them and keep them very much the same at the same time. You just can't do a whole lot better that my M.J and her babies. But I will continue to line breed that family so that I can concentrate her awesome genes. M.J is also my logo. And my best friend. She will never leave my rattery or my heart!
Update: MJ has 12 generations of babies at my rattery! Never once has there been a tumor or any other health issue in her line.
I will miss my MJ! She was my bestest rat ever! She was here with me from the beginning of all my current lines. She was here through it all, she was always here by my side raising all of the female babies with her loving mentoring way. She was and had always been the #1 Alfa rat in my colony every day of her life. She will be sadly missed.

Peter Parker
Peter Parker was an American blue dumbo. He was Mary Jane's first hubby. Almost all of my American blue babies came from him as well. He is no longer with us. I dearly miss this big boy! His son is Cama Boo. He died because of a rescue I took in bringing in a myco infection. This is when I stopped bring in rescues!

Cama Boo
Boo is no longer with us. He has passed on. And is sorely missed. Boo was the son of MJ and Peter Parker. Boo's children were Cama November, Cama Ziggy and Cama Star Dust. I miss you boy! He died at the same time as his father because of the rescue rat I took in.

Cama Ziggy
Ziggy is a very sweet boy! He is MJ and Boo's son. He has left us and will will dearly miss him! He died due to an infection in his mouth and head that the vet worked so hard to fix, but it finally took over. It was the same gram negative infection his mother got from bad food from the feed store. Ziggy's children are Cama Hendrix, Cama Tragical Beauty, Cama I Put A Spell On You, and Cama DragonFly. Ziggy had 2 beautiful litters and as usual he is a perfect self which is normal for my rattery and for that line. Ziggy now has grand children and great grand children in my rattery.
Ziggy spent most of his life in the loving home of Sarah who was always there for him and loved him every second! Sarah was the best ratty mom you can find for Ziggy, and he knew it too! Ziggy was the squishiest, lovey personable rat in the world.
We will both miss you buddy! You were the best ratty friend a person could ever have!

Cama November
November is MJ's daughter. She is now retired and living in her retirement home. She gave me a beautiful litter! Her daughter is, Cama I Put A Spell On You. November is one of the most special rats I have had the pleasure of having.

Cama Runner
This is Cama Runner. Some of you may remember him as I used this picture on my home page. He was a PEW Rex. And a very good looking one at that. He was sooo sweet and a cuddle bug! Runner is no longer alive as he died of Mycoplasma from a rescue animal I brought in, the same one that took my blue males. I also lost his brother from another litter from that myco issue. This was when I stopped rescuing rats! They were identical except his brother was a velveteen. That will teach me to do rescues! Ha just kidding! I respect those who can do rescues, but this showed me it is not a good idea for a breeder to do them. Runner was only bred one time and that was to a hairless named Sweetie Peetie. They only had one baby. That was Cama Honey Bunny. Sweetie didn't lactate with that litter so Mary Jane raised Honey. Honey had babies of her own they are Cama Creedence and Cama Clear Water. I am trying to find pictures of Runners parents (I coulda' sworn I took pix!) Chocolate chip (an agouti American Berk velveteen) and Snow Ball (a PEW Rex). That was before I had a digital camera. So I'll have to do some digging. This is my longest line of Camarattery rats. This line isn't going any where! I will always have them here. Although I can't keep them all! All Rex rats in my rattery are from Runner. I will not mix any other Rex gene with this line because they are very rare in that when you breed them as doubles they do not loose their hair like all others do.They get tighter thicker curls.

Cama Honey Bunny
Honey Bunny was a very special girl as I mentioned before she was the only baby born to her father Runner. If I wouldn't have gotten my honey I would not have been able to continue my Runner line which was the best Rex line I have ever seen. Most of the time a Rex will have Rex babies but Runner had Honey a velveteen (Honey could have been a bad Rex?). But Runner had one of each with his parents. Honey gave me 2 beautiful litters. The 1st litter I did not keep any but this last litter she had Cama Creedence and Cama Clear Water. The father to those babies was RES Darryn. Honey was one of the sweetest rats ever! She is now in her retirement home with several other females to grow old with!

TRM Minnie Cama
Minnie was my 1st really well pedigreed rat that I got after I got back into breeding on 04. She has a 25 generation pedigree. I actually bought her at a pet shop because I felt that such a pretty baby shouldn't be at a pet shop worrying weather or not she will find a good home. So I bought her and fell in love with her. Later I found out that TRM had sold her to the pet shop and I got her pedigree from that breeder. Minnie and her family have the strongest immune systems I have here in my rattery. She had one of the sweetest personalities I had seen in a rat. She is so loving and playful! She is always at the door ready to come out, and she passed that onto her babies. Minnie is the mother to Cama Vivian, Cama Grace and Cama Cash(now living with Cloe with a strict non breeding contract), And Cama Trouble. She is the foundation to my Siamese line and my Russian blue, and Russian dove line as well.
Cama Vivian had a litter! She had 5 Siamese Burmese and 8 black eyed Siamese! These are the 1st of their kind here in Colorado! They are F2 from the UK! So this should make ole' Minnie proud! She has a lot of grand children now and some with a lot of "clout" in the community!
Update: Minnie is now in a loving retirement home! She now lives with Whimsical Beauty in Loveland!

Cama Vivian
What can I say about Vivian! Well words cannot describe my feelings for her. She was #1 the most beautiful rat I have ever seen! She was also one of the the sweetest. She got that from ole' Minnie. This is the reason I chose Vivian to be the mother to the 1st litter of black eyed Siamese and Burmese in the state of Colorado. Vivian is a very well pedigreed rat with amazing documentation of her health and lineage. But her babies, as planned did out do her! Not only do they have her beautiful personality and body but also her beauty, but better.
Vivian is doing very well still but she is still young! She is now in her retirement home with Verna. And I know she is getting very well spoiled. I really miss her! But I do get updated too!
Update: I kept 2 of her babies and adopted out the rest as non breeders. They all went with non breeding rights. Vivian had 13 babies all were Siamese Burmese or black eyed Siamese.
Update again: One of Vivian's babies Cama John had a litter. And Black Eyed Siamese were included in that litter. 2 of which are now starting a BES line at RRRA rattery in Arizona along with litter mate Cama Joe Bean who is a Russian blue Irish. The rest of that litter was sold with non breeding rights. RRRA was given breeding rights according to my strict breeding contract.
