Breed em, buy em, or both? Feeder source Poll~Please Vote

Just curious how many of you buy, breed, or do both for your Rats, Mice, Rabbits, Guinea pigs, and other mammalian prey.
Let me know which you do and if you have a specific reason why.

For me, I breed for now but also buy the bigger rats because it wouldn't seem economical to raise up rats for adult boas to eat other than retired breeders.

At the moment, I buy, but plan on breeding when I get more snakes.

I am breeding, but dont have any babies yet. But I have a local source that isnt too badly priced. I think Ill breed for the most part, but may buy occasionaly

There you go - I added them.


I voted both. I breed rats, but do buy mice for the mousers, as I have no patience for breeding mice.

Breeding them, mostly ASF rats with a very rare domestic rat litter from my pet rats.

the ASF are breeding like crazy though, and I have a freezer full of them.

Just spent way too much on feeders today. Usually buy bulk but ran out. Right now I buy, but I'm seriously considering raising some.

Thanks for adding it for me.

Picking up 4-5 more female breeders today hopefully. Exciting stuff!
