Our Lines

Along with my primary focus of always improving health and temperament, our secondary goal is to produce animals that are the best example of their given standard.

My approach to breeding is slow and steady wins the race. With rats, I typically only pair a couple of does every 1-2 months. This gives me the time to interact with each litter in a meaningful way while still providing excellent care to all of my animals. For Mice, I pair more often as I have more projects and hence more goals and it's easier to house mice, but I keep litters small - usually 3-6 pups max for the well-being of both the pups and mom and to prevent producing so many mice that I can't place them in pet homes.
