making money from pythons

[98bcobra]

food, most people forget how much these things cost to keep alive a 4$ rat a week for an adult adds up when you have more then one.

If your breeding or have over 10 snakes you should really breed feeders. Yes it cost you money to get that set up (I built a 20 bin Rack that cost around $300) but in the long run it is WAY cheaper than buying feeders from a store. I have 10 snakes say I payed $40 a week to feed them thats $160 a month were it only cost me $40 in food every couple of months and Bedding cost next to nothing and water the same. Maybe a total of $60 every couple of months and that is with 8 colonies of 1.3 or 1.4 rats.

Not to mention when the rats get to big I use them as breeder or sell them to people with bigger snakes/or want pet rats. And that goes toward more food/bedding.
