Been wanting to keep some rats as pets, and thought they could also feed my snake. If I wanted to do that should it be a breeding pair, or 2 females and 1 male? I only have the one ball python with a healthy appetite, and don’t mind buying more if stock runs low. A surplus might be a problem since I don’t know anyone who’d take them.

Roughly how many does one female produce a year for you guys? And if anyone sells interesting breeds or ASFs in MA/neighboring states, I’d love to know!



(The forum has been so helpful since my dream of having a snake came true. Personally I’m really shy and never post, but wanted to say that this site is the best!)
