Pricing question, with pics!
As some of you know, i asked about if i should pick up the male pied my GF's coworker wanted to sell. Well i got him! He cost me $475:O($25 more than my gf told me) and 6 f/t weaned rats(was giving him them anyway). now I'm curious to sell how much of a savings i did get by getting this steal of a pied. Here he is, I'm saying he's 65-75% white what do you guys think? And he is 482 grams!:D

Thanks for the help

Re: Pricing question, with pics!
i actually just talked to a bunch of breeders about getting pieds. Most breeders had hatchling males at 700 to 750 and females at 800 to 900. Older ones were a bit higher males 750 to 800 and females all the way up to 1200. you got one hell of a good deal, lowest i even came across was a male 50% white for 650 at 300 grams.

It looks like he may be going into shed, but if not, he's too dark for my taste. I like his pattern, but he wouldn't fit into my breeding plans, so I wouldn't pay for him.
