You guys need a rat rack. I spend around 30 per month feeding and bedding rats that feed 10 snakes and last year I sold about 400 extras!

I order from rodentpro and the sales help immensely so I try to buy when there's a big one going on.
I would save lots by breeding my own but got shut down by my gf on that idea lol

I don't get excited, but only because all of mine seem to poop when they shed, and one poop at a time smells bad enough let alone 3 together.

WOW...$150, $165, over $200....I spend about $100 a month for 15 snakes. And that's just for the feed. Dang come to think about it, I may spend close to $150 after you add in the bedding and stuff. I need to stop breeding Rats and just buy F/T. Looks a lot easier than having to clean out bedding, but then again I know whats in my rats and their health! So how do you do it only spending $30 a month for 10 snakes?

Re: Does anybody else....
Ok...lemme break it down...but our situation is different, im sure, from everybody elses.
First, for the ASFs, we buy bales of pine for bedding from tractor supply for $5. One bale lasts a month.Then, we buy a 50lb bag of Mazuri 9f for $27.39. It lasts 8 months.
For mice, i get them from work for 80 cents, cuz i work there. And for rats, we help our buddy clean his rat racks once a week, and in exchange he lets us have all the rats we need.
