I will be purchasing several rats to start a breedign colony to feed my snakes and I would like some opinions from more experienced breeders. I will be breeding rats to feed the 7 BP's I have and for future snakes I may aqcuire. I took my original plan from a sticky on these forums.

I am building two 6-tub racks (also taken from a sticky on these forums) and want to house one female in each tub, rotating a male into each tub every two weeks. My plan is to have two males, giving each male a two week break between pairings. The way it was explained, after the 12th pairing is complete I should be able to start from the begining again. If I ever need more feeders I can always add 1 or more to each tub and continue the process. My main concern is with the females being kept alone for so long. Would that be an issue? Does this sound like a good plan? Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks

Mike
