Like I said before, I purchased my hedgie for I think $65 dollars, plus his cage and all the supplies were around 200 bucks.


I have never heard them go for as high as $175 dollars unless it's a snowflake or cinnacot or some other hard to find color.


Some of my rats sell for as much as $50 dollars for certain types. But they also come with a printed pedigree, a contract, sample food and a health guarantee. If you could find a good breeder I would swing that way. I am sure there is a reason why she is charging so much. Remember that most likely all that money will go back into her breeding program. That's how it works with my rats anyway.

WolfChan, YES RATS are very expensive lol! Just not vet bills but everything. Last time I went shopping for them I spent 200 bucks, jeez!


Vet bills always come with ratties. My newest rescue just came back from the vet a few days ago, it was $26 for an exam and then $30 dollars for his Baytril....and I hated the vet BTW. This boy is still young so he shouldn't be on Baytril but she wouldn't give me anything else! Grr I would have taken him to my regular vet if they had an appointment open. I love my vets, they are just awesome!
