    Gerbils

    Pretty much my question is: What are the pro's and con's of feeding and breeding Gerbils to/for your BP?

    pros

    easy to breed
    prolific
    grow fast
    friendly
    less smell than mice, rats or asf

    cons

    not as prolific as asf
    snakes can become obsessed or picky and will eat no other prey
    small groups are okay but gerbils can be aggressive to animals they are not raised with. Makes creating colonies tricky
    expensive from pet stores
