Dave, how many rat tubs/colonies do you have going to supply your collection?
I only breed a small amount of rodents now (6 rat tubs at 1 male to 3 females, and 5 mouse tubs) just for those picky eaters that I have and otherwise buy F/T. I used to feed my snakes only what I bred but I found that with a lot of snakes I never seemed to have enough to keep all my animals on a good, constant schedule.
My main problem with the F/T I buy is the outrageous shipping costs so I have been considering getting more rodent racks and breeding and freezing my own but it seems that I would have to have a lot of breeding racks and a lot of housing racks while I let the feeders get up to size.
Of course my reservation with going back to breeding a lot of rodents is simply the fact that I hate rats and mice and despise cleaning cages. The downside of owning reptiles.
