originally we were going to breed her pet rats (before my snakes were eating rats) and sell the babies to the petstore... but they only give you $2 per rat... which doesn't even cover the expenses of raising them... and then they sell them for $10-12.
now that we are feeding rats, having to pay that much for an under nourished, skin and bones rat is not only a rip off financially but IMO not a healthy choice for my snakes.
so now we breed :)
