My Ball Python collection is growing and it is getting too expensive to buy rats at the local shop. I have been thinking on setting up my own rat/mouse breeding colonies, but I have no idea on how to do it. I need some advice from experienced rat breeders on how to set up a colony. What kind of housing, substrate, food, everything...PLEASE, HELP!
Thank you!
