Yearly Food Cost = 0, because I raise my own rodents



Yearly Electricity Cost = I use a small space heater for about 2 months in the spring and 2 months in the fall....so about $40



Yearly Water Cost = $10 maybe, my water is free, just a little elctricity to run the pump for my well.



Yearly Cost of Dry Goods (tubs, bedding, cleaning materials, bowls, heat cables, supplements, enclosures, light bulbs, etc.) = $30 for the small water dishes. I haven't spent $ on tubs or racks in over 10 years. Since I do raise my own mice I do buy food and bedding for them.....sell enough extra rodents to cover theat cost and make a few bucks.



Sell a few snakes.....make a few bucks.



This winter I am trying to reduce my breeder snakes to jst a handful and reduce my rodent production in half.....I would rather be doing taxidermy.
