Wow! Yes, I can see where that would be an issue. Once I have sold the hatchlings and a couple of breeders that don't fit in to my plans, I will probably only have between 10 and 15 left, only 3 of which won't take FT yet. I really don't want to raise rats if I can avoid it. Besides I think my wife has been very understanding with the snakes, and with having rats in our freezer. She'd probably appreciate me not raising live rats as well.
