Specimen Rats [For Dissection]

Razorfish · 2014-01-23 22:26:13

Hi All, I am a teacher in a vocational school and was looking to source about 10 rats for dissection with a TY group I have. Difficult or expensive to order from the UK. Is there any sources in Ireland where I could them? Thanks

I had a similar problem a while ago, although I needed to get dead mice for an experiment. You'd get frozen rats and mice very easily in any pet shops that keep reptiles. You should be looking at paying less than a pound per rat (but that depends on how big you want them!) so I'd say locate and email a few of your local reptile pet shops and see what the craic is!
