I have 11 ball pythons and 1 BCI. I'm going to keep growing my collection. I like to feed every 5 days because they are all 2011/2012. I currently buy F/T online, but I am wondering if it would be better to breed. I did the math on F/T, and with my 12 snakes it will cost almost $900/year and that's just on rat pinkies - weaned rats, not adults.
Also, I will probably be keeping them in the garage. The day temperature in there is fine, but gets colder at night. Can I hook up a heater in there on a extra hydrofarm thermostat I have? How would I hook it up?
