I've heard the sad rumors again. Any known outbreaks in Canada?
Any idea why breeders don't test their new rats BEFORE throwing them into their rattery? I mean, come on, how hard is it to ask someone to sit them for a three days while you do a blood-spot test? (Idexx) . I remember doing them back in the tail-vein day, when it cost $400 -- a whole paycheck for me at the time ... x6, for 3 years of positive rats I had to rehome
