Rat prices
Why is it that rats are so expensive in Alberta??? You see them in the states for $1.00 for large rats and Ontario and that has them for prices like that too so why do we albertans have to pay around $3.00 for a rat.......I so wish we could just breed our own. Stupid government bans!

If we buy them in the LPS that is what you pay here too, or higher. I hate seeing all those adds for large rats $1.00. Only if you live next door of course!

Many many online breeders have great prices. Give Corey Woods a call, his are pretty reasonable, or Mark "Rats for sale"

See if Ontario Prices are better with shipping. Could save you some $$$ anyways.
BTW Alberta is the best province IMO

I agree, honestly I wouldn't live anywhere else. I just hate seeing rats go for so cheap and have to pay so much here just cause we can't breed them here. I will have to email Corey and see what he charges and everything with shipping.
