How Do You Make Extra $$$?
So now that I m expanding with reptiles the prices are jumping from food all the way to caging. I am just wondering how do you make extra money to help benefit the better for your reptiles?
Thanks,
Daniel

Dont think about making extra money think about how to get by by spending less.
Buying rats to feed your snakes frozen or live is expensive.
Breed your own.
Cost of rat food is cheap if bought at feed stores in 50 pound bags.
I spend about 20 bucks per 50 pound bag and that lats a long time.
The most expensive thing i buy is Aspen bedding. I get it at tractor supply company at 10 bucks a bag. I use it for all my pets.
If you want to go cheaper there is Equine Fresh pet bedding. I have never used it myself but i heard its ok for reptiles and rodents.
Also build your own racks. They dont have to be pretty they have to be functional.

Re: How Do You Make Extra $$$?
I don't make any more than my regular paycheck. If I want to add another animal, or need to buy new equipment, I set money aside from my paycheck until I have that money to purchase what I want or need. That means more packed lunches, and less going out to eat with co-workers, less buying some things because I want them, rather than NEED them.
What's hard for some folks is the need to get something (usually an animal) right NOW, rather than delaying gratification until they can really afford it (ie, have proper housing set up).
Trust me, if you have to work hard to save money for what you want, you are going to appreciate it so much more.

Thats what I was thinking to do but I don't know if I want to do that anymore!
