Feeder Mice

Not sure if this is the right forum that I should be posting this in, but here goes. I was having trouble feeding my new ball python (first time owner by the way) frozen/thawed mice. Just wasn't interested. I then decided to try the live method. Before I even got my ball down in the tub with the mouse it had taken it. So I have decided to maybe start breeding my own feeder mice, as this would help nullify some of the cost associated with purchasing them every feeding. Suggestions? Has anyone tried this or is already doing this? If so where can I get the "starter mice" at that I know are already sexed. Thanks in advance for any and all advice/suggestions.

Have you also tried fresh killed mice? :)

If you just have one BP then the cost to build/buy a mouse breeding setup will be more expensive than just buying a single mouse each week, and probably more work than it's worth. Also remember that your BP will only be on mice for a short time, so you will either need to slightly modify your breeding setup to accommodate the size difference between a rat and mouse. Now if you are planning on getting more snakes than breeding feeder rodents could be a great idea. So if you have no problem with the added work it takes to breed rodents then by all means look more in to it and start breeding. I just recently started breeding feeder rats for my snakes and food costs are way lower and not to mention I think it's super fun to do. Have fun with you new snake :)
