Default rat/breeding care sheet

I found this care sheet on rats, has everything including breeding etc...though it might be good for someone considering breeding them for feeder.

The woman that wrote that is where we get our rats from, she is a well respected breeder here in the uk and im sure she would be horrified to think that some people would use her work for feeders.

To be fair though, breeding rats isn't exactly hard is it lol.. Just make sure you've got opposite sex rats & keep them alive.

In all honesty, if it was my caresheet i'd rather it was used by feeder breeders to do it 'properly', rather than them making half guessed attempts that could cause potential harm to both mother and babies.

If everybody followed her caresheet to breed their own feeder rats, surely the rat welfare situation in the country as a whole would actually be improved?
