I decided to train all the rats a super simple agility course consisting of only 4 obstacles. The main goal was to see if my girls could remember the course when learning it all at once (as I often see rats/other small animals being trained courses this way, rather than my preferred method of adding each obstacle on once the animal understands the previous ones). I will contrast this tomorrow by training them a different course via back-chaining, and then comparing them. 

I've always used back-chaining to train multi-step tricks like agility, so I think it'll be interesting to see if training each course differently has any noticeable difference.
