    Re: What do you do with your retired breeders?

    I got a blood python for that very reason. the good thing about bloods is they are kept fairly similar to ball pythons a little cooler and a little higher humidity. Also they don't get too terribly big. they also have a slower metabolism and need fed less often. the only problem is that now I don't breed my own and I have to order XXL rats just for her.

    My son wanted a black blood and I thought it was the perfect solution. She will soon be big enough to take the retired breeders.

    I have a local pet store that is always willing to take xxL and jumbos. He usually trades me a couple smalls for each one I bring in.
