What Price to sell rats?

Question

My pet rat gave birth to an accidental litter, I researched all the things I need to about rat pregnancy so I am prepared. the only thing I need to know is how much to sell them. I'm not selling them for the money I just need to know how much to sell them so no snake owner will want to buy them as feeders. please help.

Answer 1

sell them to a pet hop we thre wienned of the mother there take tham not alot for them but they will take them

f not then £4 is a good price there £6 inthe shop in my area

Answer 2

My suggestion is to sell them for only about $1 more then the local pet store. A snake person should want the cheapest ones but if you go to high no one else will buy from you when they could go to the petstore.

A person who cares more about them would be willing to pay a little more for them being used to people so handle them a lot.

It'll be tough though. I wound up with 4 girls (I only wanted 2) because the lady couldn't sell any of them and was gonna take them to the pet store. As it was she took the 6 boys.

I only paid $2 a piece for them but I had put out and ad saying I wanted pet rats and she contacted me.

Answer 3

10$

Answer 4

Small rats (Rats under about 12 weeks) are usually sold for about $3-5 at pet stores.  What I do if I have fosters ready to be adopted is find out how much the feeder animal of the equivillant size is, and then price it a few dollars more.  It also helps to ask them questions about their family, make sure they have food for the rats (A new bag) and to see a cage.  Even go so far as to drop the rats off yourself.

Good luck finding good homes. :)  I usually expect to pay between $5-10 if I'm looking to adopt a rat.

Answer 5

I tried this. No one wanted to buy them. Also A man wanted me to use a shipper and sent an enormous check. It was a scam.

If you still want to try-good luck! I was told that $5 is a good price.

Cash only and in your area is really good. If you get a check, take it to your bank to get it checked out.

Hope this helps!
