Shipping

DELTA currently has an embargo on ALL 
Pet Shipping - we are unable to ship at this time.

We offer shipping via Delta Pet ONLY. Delta will only ship if temperatures are below 85 degrees farenheight. The fees are exactly what are charged by Delta Pet and payment is required when the crates are physically dropped off and weighed. Generally the cost to ship one crate within the continental US is $160, which is required up front. It is YOUR responsibility to find the nearest airport to you that will receive Delta Pet flights. Their number is 1-800-352-2746.

Containers

If we have shipping containers available, they may be rented for $20. An additional deposit of $40 is required which will be refunded upon the return of the crate (by mail), or you may forfeit your deposit and keep the crate. If you prefer you may purchase your own container (or if no rental crates are available at the time you require shipping) you must purchase your own airline approved crate and have it delivered to me here at the rattery for your shipment. We recommend Taconic or Sage Rodent Shipping Containers.

Comfort & Safety

​Rats are shipped in clean, sanitized containers with fresh, clean bedding. They are provided with a selection of fresh fruits and vegetables, HydroGel cups, which is 98% pure water in a non-wetting gel form (eliminates the need for water bottles and excellent for animal transport), Lab Bloc, and several chew blocks.
