I use the going rate in the U.S to base my pricing: I use the national average, this way my pricing is the same as the other U.S rat breeders. I do not ask a lot for my rats. All I hope for is that they pay for their bedding, food, caging, toys and other rat supplies they need, sometimes they do, sometimes not. Lower prices in some ratteries can mean lower quality animals, and the breeder wanting to sell and breed more rats as fast as they can to get them out the door faster. On the flip side higher prices than these can mean they are out to make money and the quality of the rat suffers. The national average is based off of the best quality breeders have to offer while hoping to pay for rat supplies. My rats are not low quality animals from unknown lines nor are they pet shop stock, they are all from imported lines, lines I have shipped in or lines I have driven thousands of miles to obtain. My rats are very well pedigreed and for many generations their ancestors have been bred for health, temperament and longevity with the cancers and other negative genetic health issues bred away from. The national average base pricing I use offsets all of the money I spend to provide quality animals to all of my adopters. Some breeders cannot provide this kind of quality to you, thus the price differences in some cases.
Other Pricing:
Note To Breeders: Prices are different for you. Please ask for pricing.
Please see the weights I sell before asking for a random amount.
Harlan Teklad Lab Blocks
2lbs Of Harlan Blocks: $3.00
4lbs: $6
33lbs (full unopened bag): $33
Discount on full bags for breeders because you need more food.
Full bags must be pre-ordered no less than 8 weeks in advance. We do a Harlan order every 6 Weeks or longer, depending on need, so we need to know ahead of time.
All orders for a full bag must be paid for in full ahead of time.
Rule of thumb is one rat will eat one pound of Harlan per month. Harlan stays fresh for 6-8 months. And you can freeze it if need be.
I no longer sell grain. My rats are not used to eating grain. If you want to feed the rats you purchase from me the grain diet talked about on my diets page, you will need to purchase some of the Harlan blocks so you can wean them off of the blocks slowly. You cannot cold turkey switch them to grain; they don't know what it is. However giving them blocks is healthier and more nutritionally balanced and easy to obtain since I always have it. Blocks are not only 100% nutritionally balanced, they are also less messy. With grain diets you will be forced to use other supplements to cover your rat’s dietary needs because grain is an inferior way to feed your rats. Please see my diets page for more information on what to feed your rat.
And of course, we do not ship food.
Formula 2016 for adults 3 months and older.
Formula 8604 for babies under 3 months old.
Down Payment Policy:
You must
put a $5 down payment per rat you want held. You also have the option
to pay the animal off in full. You have four days from the time of adoption approval to get that payment to us in order to lock in your hold. If you want a rat and have not put a
down payment on it and someone else does, then the person who made the
down payment gets the rat. If you have made a down payment on a rat(s)
you may not get the money (the down payment part ie...$5) refunded if
you decided not to get the animal.
You may get on our wait list after you have adoption approval, but we will not lock you in for the babies you want until you send us a down payment. You can do that right after you have adoption approval. Once we have approved you for adoption, we will email you with down payment info.
Making Payments
Down
Payments can be made by sending a check or money order.
When you send
the down payment per snail mail please include a separate note, do not write this not on the check! There is not enough room for everything we need on the check.
Please include the following info on your separate note:
. Your Name. So I know who the check is for.
. Which rats the payment is for. I will have several checks coming in for my current available litters, so I need to know which particular rats your check is paying for.
.Your e-mail address. This is so I can contact you to tell you I got the payment.
If you do not include the separate note with your check we will not know which rats to apply the payment to.
Once we
receive the check, I will e-mail you with confirmation of receiving
the money. When I receive the down payment I will remove animal from
the "available" status and put your name on it. If I do not receive the
down payment with in four days from the time you requested the rat from
me, I will take your hold off of the rat and it will become available
again. The only exception to the four day policy is if you live out of state.
All final
payments you make when you pick up the rat(s) must be made in cash
ONLY. I will NOT accept checks for final payment. If you bring a check
I will not send the rats home! This is the case even if in the past you
paid me by check at pick up time. Please bring correct change as I
usually don't have any. Rats must be picked up the week they are ready.
If you do not pick up your pet within seven days ofter it's ready date and I cannot get a hold of you, I will adopt the animal to someone else. No refunds of any kind. Your down payment cannot be applied to another rat in this situation.
Obviously I won't post my personal information like my address on the web for everyone to see, because that's not safe... So after reading the down payment policy you can e-mail me for that info.
Camarattery reserves the right to refuse adoption to anyone for any reason without explanation.
