Excellent quality and outstanding service

I ordered a frozen rat from Darwin Biological for a school's open evening dissection, and I was really impressed with both the product and the service. The specimen was a good size and arrived in excellent condition. It was well frozen, intact, and with no damage. My highlight was the packaging, which was particularly noteworthy, using recycled wool for insulation... I really appreciated from a sustainability perspective. I also had a very tight delivery window, and after contacting customer service, the team went above and beyond to ensure it arrived on time, which made a big difference!
Overall, a very positive experience. I would definitely order from Darwin Biological again and highly recommend them :)

Hi Caro,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear you that you liked our packaging as well as the specimen. I've passed your feedback on to the team and look forward to working with you again.
Many thanks,
Meg

Frozen rats

This was my first purchase from Darwin Biological and my first time purchasing 'fresh'/unpreserved rats.

Dealing with Darwin was easy - my emails were replied to quickly and I was able to call and ask for advice about delivery times. Rats were held after my order was placed, and they were posted out, at the time of my request, on 24 hour delivery, in an insulated bag.

The rats were of very good quality but as it was my first time using unpreserved rats for dissection I was slightly unprepared for the subtle differences in appearance from the preserved specimens I would normally use. My students found this dissection a challenging one but they all thoroughly enjoyed the hours they spent completing it.
