Many of us breed our own feeder rodents. For me it does save me a bit of money, it also helps to have that consistency of prey available since my local stores are up and down with what they might have available any given week and I love knowing that what my snakes eat was raised by me and is the quality I want for them to eat.

The downside is it's a lot of work - more rodent work than snake work for me each week. To just feed one BP, I don't think it's really worth it but that's up to you to decide. Also for me I won't breed mice as personally I hate their smell. I breed regular sized rats and african soft furred rats (called ASF's) and they suit the size of snakes I'm feeding.

We have an area here called "Feeders" and in there you should be able to find many threads and stickies about rats, mice and ASF's.
