I think that a lot of the joy goes out of turning something you love into a "business"- it becomes work! Happily, I stopped short of allowing that to happen to me.
I've seen several posts on this forum from members wanting to find a good rodent supplier in Canada...that might be something to think about, as far as supporting

if done correctly, with far less money invested.
