It's a regular ol Norway fancy rat. They just have a genetic abnormality that causes them to be smaller. It's a genetic trait that can be bred for. Nothing unethical about it. At some point someone bred their rats and had one or two that were smaller. They bred those and produced more. So on and so on. What's wrong with that??

The ignorance of some people always baffles me. You'd think I'd be use to it by now with as long as I've been keeping reptiles, but it never does cease to amaze me.
