I have no intention of breeding the 1000g female. Not that I will never do it, but for right now the care I've put into my snakes means to much to me to take undue risks. I've been thinking a lot about the what you've mentioned about feeding live. I actually breed my own rodents at the moment, but that's actually a lot the reason I do frozen thawed. I do six tubs at 0.2 and rotate two males through them and I have a hard time what I need to pull to freeze With almost twenty in my snake collection I'm afraid that if I feed live I'll run out of particular sizes that I would need. Another big problem I would have is having a place to keep rats for raising. With freezing it seems to be easier because I can freeze the raised rats before they have a chance to have babies. Do you have any ideas on a system I could use to make sure I'd have enough food for my snakes. Also I don't really want to go much more than 4 more females in my rat breeding. If I go much more I feel like the cost and work of the rat breeding won't offset what I could just purchase frozen for. Any insight would be greatly appreciated I'm really liking the idea of just being able to grab 20 rats and throw them in the tubs and let the snakes go to town.



Thanks for the help
