Actually I do beleive that it is pretty close to being a mulit billion dollar indusrty. Rodents, caging, heating, racking, imports, exports, the pet trade and much more has to be taken into consideration when coming up with totals. Importers alone spend millions each year easily, individual importers spend close to 250-300k a year alone and there are alot more out there then people think. I own a wholesale company in NE, we only do rodents and reptiles and we average close to 500k gross a year. There is alot of money in this trade that dosent meet the eye at first.
Just my opinoin on what I know and see...
