There is a possibility that you could get sick from a fancy rat bite because rats are commonly known to have some deseases and sicknesses. I actually have a fancy rat myself and my rats vet said that is the only thing to look out for if you do get bit by a fancy rat. Just make sure it doesnt get all red and puffy.

What is rat culling?

Rat culling is a technique used by breeders to make sure only the rats with desired traits breed. Breeders that want healthy rats monitor all of their rats, and any that are blind, deaf, or always sick are 'culled,' which is a nice way to say 'killed so they won't breed.' If unhealthy rats are allowed to breed, their babies will be unhealthy too, sometimes sicker than their parents, and all of the breeder's rats will eventually become blind, deaf or sick, so they are culled before this can happen. This is very harsh and unfair to the unhealthy rats, as they could be spayed or easily kept separate and live out a happy life without reproducing, but some breeders don't want to waste food, time and care on rats that will not be bred.
