Some Things to consider.

Cost, Time, Money, Smell

Cost- Unless you have alot of snakes to feed... Like a few adults and a few juveniles.. Don't bother. Your start up cost will be around 100 dollars to start and that is just the begining. Things break and you always need more. 25 Dollars a week this method, but this method doesnt stink!!!

Time- I spend 30-40 Min cleaning my cages Every two to three days. I wouldn't want to spend more than 5 minutes in my house if I cleaned my cages once a week. Even If I spot cleaned. I use Steralite tubs 32qt longs I think, and these will cut down on the smell. Must be cleaned more often because of toxins though. If you start with just one mouse it will take you a while. Those babies won't produce for 6-8 weeks and then those babies another 8 weeks. and you will need to still feed in the mean time. I would get two males and six females and have two set ups to start. This will pay for itself and if you don't want to continue, you won't have spent any money.

If you have a sizable snake collection I would consider it. Start small at first so you know what you are getting into. If you are married. Reconsider This! Or Clean them every other day.
