reassurance needed!

[reillyratgirl]

I recently adopted two hooded rats, female about 6 months. One is very active and curious, an ideal pet rat. The other is very timid and doesn't seem to move around the large cage much. She is very sweet but I am worried about her! I even cut my weekend short at my boyfriends so I could race home and check on her. She is not active at all!
I have only had her since Saturday and she was placed in her new cage last night so I am hoping she only needs to get use to things.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi, she could very well be needing some time to get used to her new place. But it's not unusual for a rat's character to be quiet and shy.
