Personally I don't know why people are always talking about the "bad smell" from breeding mice. As long as you keep things clean it won't smell. I use shredded newspapers and aspen mixed together as the bedding, and it absorbs urine great and the aspen I use really covers up the smell. After you create your tubs, buy the breeders your going to use, and buy them an exercise wheel, its virtually barely ANYTHING to keep it running. $7 every 6 weeks in rat/mouse food, $6 every 6 weeks in bedding, and that is really about it. Go check out the mice breeding section of this forum. You might find a lot of the posts useful man.Originally Posted by ALTownsend1
for mice/rat breeding, what's the process? Do you sell them to others or what? How intense is the smell most importantly?
I have a post up of my tubs and breeder mice. If your planning on having 3 ball pythons (I think you said 3) then breeding your own feeders will save you a lot of money in the long run. Its a fun project to do also if you have a little extra time on your hands.
