Advert Details

Agouti/Cinnamon shy but curious baby asf rats looking for new homes. Never shown any signs of aggression. Can be jumpy but will soon be a lot more confident.

Asf rats are awesome as they can be housed with male mice that can’t be housed with our males. Females can be housed with male mice as they can’t breed but can be social and enjoy each others company.

They are also very good feeder breeders. They are what ball/royal pythons would eat in the wild and even the pickiest ball pythons will usually eat them.

Simple diet of rat nuggets/dog food and you can give them some treats (like mealworms) and some fruits and veggies if you want.

They only need small enclosures and can be kept in tubs. It’s very easy to start breeding colonies.

They are easy to care for and are very rewarding pets.

They are about the size of mice. They don’t need a lot of handling or time. Uncommon pet and can be hard to come across, so get them while we have them ??

Males and females available. All very healthy. No issues. £10 each or £15 for two. Can do deals on groups.

Important Reminders

Be extra cautious with online transactions!
We encourage you to read these guidelines before buying or adopting a rodent.

Have you done your research?

Carry out the research so you have all the necessary knowledge of the pet you are getting. Since owning a pet is a big commitment, you should research about the breed fully to make sure it fits your current lifestyle and budget.

Have you seen the pet?

Take time to visit the advertiser's home to confirm if they are genuine. Do not settle for online communications and photos. UK Pets does not verify the authenticity of all advertisers. The advertiser should allow you to personally see the rodents with their mother. If they keep on giving you excuses why you could not visit their home or the address stated in the advert is not the accurate and permanent location of the pet, consider this a red flag.

Avoid online payment

Never pay anything online through money transfer companies especially if you have not personally visited the advertiser and seen the pet, this includes deposit and delivery cost for the pet. There is also no means to recover your money if issues arise. Before closing a deal.
