Question
Why are some rats prone to respiratory infections and how do they get them?  I asked another expert the same thing but want a second opinion. Thank you very much.

Answer
This is not my best subject but I can try to answer your question.  Alot of respitory infections are caused by dust, some rats get them from poor breeding, poor cage ( Meaning not clean) and some rats get them from, dust.
Again not my BEST subject but I do have experience with respitory infections.
Hope this helped
