I used to breed my own rodents: one male to 9 females would work out just fine (I hear that 1.4 or 1.5 is better for a 10 gallon tank). I quit raising rodents after I found a good supplier of frozen (http://www.bigcheeserodents.com/) and I figured out that they sell rats for the same price that it cost me to breed/raise them.
ALSO I do not like rats, and I love my snakes. I was spending more time feeding/cleaning my rats than I was for my snakes, and this was the final straw. I do however miss having organically grown live rodents at ANY SIZE I WANTED. I would often do a pure vegetable diet for about 24 hours prior to feeding the rodents to my snakes...never knew if this helped, But it made me feel better.
And yes, males have HUGE NADS.
