Can someone please help me with some rats?

savana_man Jun 23, 2003 09:03 PM

OK. I found rats in 7 pet stores today. They all wanted around $10 for them. I would get them from the reptile show but that is in 4 and a half weeks. I would like to get the rats breeding now. Can anyone sell/give me some rats? all i need is one male one female.

Thanks again,
Adam Walton

Holy Moly! did they want $10 each or for both? I haven't bought rats in a while....Well, I did piss off the teen at Petco by getting his manager to sell me a girl with 11 pups just born for the $6 of the mom. Where are you?

You can get feeder rats for kinda cheap, like 4-5 bucks, but regular rats are 10 bucks a pop. hairless are 10 a piece also. The feeder rats all seem to be male, i think because the petstores are breeding and dont need the males. This is problematic if your trying to breed. Philly is expensive ...

If you are willing to come to the Atlanta area, you can have a couple.

I live in Helena, Alabama. I may be in the atlanta area some time this summer. Yep I will be i'm going in about 7 weeks to visit my aunt. Oh well I checked around and I still haven't found a place that sells feeder rats. I know I can get hairless ones at the reptile show in 4 and a half weeks.

Thanks for the help,
