African soft hairs.

So like 2 days ago I heard the term Afrian soft hairs and after doing more research I realized thats the way to go. I ordered 2.8 from a breeder off hobbly.com He wanted 10$ a rat, but I got the group for 75$ shipped. I dont know much about rodents, but is this a decent price? I only ask because I know they are almost impossible to find around here and If I breed them Id like to offer them local to people who cant find them and I wouldnt want to rip someone off.

That price is a bit on the expensive side, but they are getting shipped...are they adults or weans?

I can't see any possible way they are being shipped legally at that price....

agreed ... legally ... or safely (as in safe for the animals).

How do you ship rodents legally?

I would honestly be suprised if they arrived alive.

Typically air freight ... but they can be "delivered" via ground cargo if the distance isn't too great.

Since the word "shipped" was used, the assumption I think would be "air" ... but you know what they say about "assuming" ... Noel could have just mis-typed that part. who knows :confuzd:

I'd be interested to know how they are being shipped too. Please? Thanks.
The african soft FUR rats are available here for $3 each or so, but in diff areas they are more expensive.

Yeah I cant find them anywhere local. I have not gone over the specifics to much (waiting for paypal to clear.) but I was told they were 2.8 adult breeders around 8 months old. and that the price included shipping. I honestly couldnt tell you more. though I could cancel the paypal transaction since everyone here says this is probably a bad idea. Anyone know where I can get an 2.8 breeding group local then?

try scott at cvexotics he breeds some they have a site with their # and hes in nh too i believe or somewhere close
