If you are a breeder and would like me to add your link to this page, please send me an email with your web address so that I can visit your site. Thanks!

If you are looking for a breeder from whom to obtain fancy rats, please take the time to question the breeders in your area and to observe the conditions of their rats and rattery. I would suggest visiting several of the breeders in your area before deciding from whom to adopt.

Unfortunately, all rats have myco. Therefore, you will want to choose from lines that have a very high resistance to the bacteria. Listen for ANY sneezing and if any is heard, inquire as to who is sneezing and why. Young rats with myco may indicate a problem with that particular breeders' lines resistance. Older rats who have started to fail may warrant overlooking. You'll need to decide. Also pay special attention to the temperaments of their rats. Any skittishness? Any males with hormonal problems? These are things that you'll want to avoid as well. And then inquire as to the lines' problems with tumors, bumblefoot, and longevity.

If you take the time to really screen the breeders, you'll have a much better chance of ending up with healthy, friendly rats.
