I am located in Brantford Ontario (Canada)
I operate as a closed rattery. Meaning: I do not permit any visits to my rattery and no animals will be handled and then returned to the rattery without going through quarantine. I do this for the safety of myself and my animals against physical and biological threats. I take health and safety very seriously. My animals have been tested through IDEXX Labs.

RESERVATIONS
My babies can be reserved for future pick-up or delivery (See transport page for details). I require a 50% non-refundable deposit on a baby to reserve it. This can be paid by Cash or Interac E-Transfer (Canada only & preferred), Almost every financial institution participates, click here for a list. I will accept Western Union for non-local persons.
I encourage reservations for babies to ensure the one you want will be available once it's old enough to leave. Reserved babies must be picked up within 1 week from the time they are allowed to leave. A reservation hold on an older rat is good for one week. Failure to pick up your animal will result in it being homed with someone else & deposit forfeited.

*In special circumstances I can be available outside of these times. (preferable weekday evenings) but please plan to be available within these times, or make other arrangements with us before reserving your rats.

Note for breeders: rats of multiple genes (visually or carried) will cost more, whereas rats carrying genes will be less expensive.
Stud Fees: I do not stud rats. There are too many risks associated. If you're interested in a particular rat, contact me to see if we can obtain a baby (or pair of babies) from it.
My rats are not priced by colour, sex or ears. They are valued by the variety/gene/line & the difficulty involved in working with it, as well as, the costs associated to procure it. Prices are not negotiable.
Development of New Genes:
Lab line Albinos are newer line for us. They are still a work in progress and only have limited availability to approved homes, but because they are still a work in progress they can come with some additional difficulties.
We've been working with them since:
Marbles: 2014
Silvermane: 2015
Tonkinese aka US Siamese Sable: 2015
Dalmatian: 2016
Shadow/Tortoiseshell: 2018
Patchwork: 2018
Chinchilla: 2020
Lab Line Albino: 2021
Please Read: Regarding the rumors on male rats!
I understand a lot of websites are saying that males smell more. They do give off a slight more of a scent on their skin/fur. It is a grain/wheat type smell from the foods they eat. It is not a smell like cat spray. Also their "junk" is not like that on a hamster, An adult male rat is completely fur covered and not as noticeable as other rodents. (don't get me wrong, you can still tell it's a boy though)
Note:
Babies must be purchased in same sex pairs, unless this is not your first time adopting from us. Rats should never be housed alone, and they should always be quarantined when bringing new animals into your home. For these reasons, same sex pairs is a must.
