Our Variety
Our rats are checked by the vet regularly. We do yearly stool sample checks to look for common and rare pathogens, as well as parasites. Our rats are treated every 6 months for mites, lice, and ticks. The vet we go to is Dr. Cade Norman. He is located at the Bayview Animal Hospital in Farmington, UT.
​
The prices of our rats are reflected by the time, work, and effort we put in as well as the high quality care they are given. Our prices are also reflected by their variety/genes and the difficulty involved in producing them. All profit made goes right back into our rats, into housing, food, enrichment and stimuli, vet care, treatments, and more. Our prices start at $30/ea. for babies, older rats ranger $15-$25/ea.

Silvermane (D'Argent)
One of my all time favorite varieties, see pictures of the different colors.
"These rats are similar to Roan in that they will get more white as they age; however, rather than having silvered and non-silvered hairs, their coat will have the tips that look white. White tips disappear when wet just showing the dark undercoat. Has a "facial mask" (darker muzzle and eye area; mask shows up at 3–4 weeks of age, sometimes not until 12 weeks). Babies start out solid black then gets the silvering (leaving a mask) that increases with age until the tips are all white." -AFRMA
