Rats Breeding?

PLEASE DON'T breed them. First of all, you should NEVER breed pet store rats, you don't know what their family history is and you could end up with some VERY sick baby rats. Also, I doubt you know anything about rat genetics. That is something that is very important to know to avoid breeding sick rats. Have you ever even had pet rats before? Go get some rats to keep as PETS ONLY. Keep rats for a few years and then think about breeding. Find some good recent books on rat genetics and breeding or find a good local breeder to help you learn. Then get some rats from a good line from a breeder and breed them. There are so many rats in rescues right now, it just isn't a good idea to get into breeding.
