And I guess males the same price.
I saw pictures of hers and they look really healthy and she is a 2 hour drive from me about so its very do able.
If I get what I am wanting it would run me about $ 100 total.

Please refresh my memory as to how many females I should keep per pan in my rack. Hubby made the rack like Clay Davenports with home depots pans.
He said the pans were a little narrower.
Anyway just need to know how many females I can keep in these. I plan to place male in for breeding then pull and let females stay together to birth. I am going to try it this way and see how it works for me and go from there.

I am fixing to order my water bottles as soon as I get off here and then all I need to do is get the litter , food and then my rats.

Thanks all for the help and info I really really appreciate it. You guys have been a termendous help to me.

thanks rhsm
Personally I think that 5 dollars per fancy rat is WAAAAY too expensive. I pay 1.50 per rat regardless of size, and I get them from a fantastic breeder who has the best rats I have ever seen. I even got a hairless from him. So if I were you I would try to look around for a better option.
