For starters 10 - 20 medium rats for the female, and it's getting late so she better eat up or wait for the next year.

Super stripe seems to be a combination of one copy of the yellow belly mutation (which the ivory female will supply to all her offspring) and either one copy of the specter or whirlwind mutation. The last two may or may not be two names for the exact same thing and may or may not be different mutation(s) of the same gene as the yellow belly mutation. I haven't heard of a homozygous specter or whirlwind being made yet and your friend would probably be pretty hard pressed to find a yearling male of even the het versions available.

Randy, thanks for the reply. He is not looking to bred her this year but next year. He is looking for a male hatchling for next year. Who has Specters or Whirlwinds ? Thanks Claude
