Quick intro for me... I'm a ball python owner in Toronto, Canada... So glad I found this forum!

and here's what happened:

I was expecting to recieve a young ball python as a pet, so I decided to buy three mice, and start a harem (not a lot of places nearby to buy pinkies/mice conveniently).

I ended up getting blindsided and recieving a 2.5ft female who is obviously too large to be on a pinkie diet.

I'm sitting here with ~20 pinkies looking for hungry reptiles.. lizards, small snakes, etc.

Could anyone suggest maybe another forum where I can sell these little guys? Or a small shop in Toronto who would take some of them off my hands? (I already have someone lined up to buy a few of them) Or even suggestions on feeding pinkies to adult ball pythons, if it's reasonable or not....

Kind of jumped the gun didn't I? :no:

A little bit. Where in Toronto do you live? I am also in Toronto and know a fair amount of the stores in the area. I would think it would be cheaper to just buy the rodents than to breed your own. It can get costly since you only have one snake.

You could also try selling them on kijiji.ca, I know that's where I look before going to the pet shop. Mostly because if you sell them for a little less then pet store prices people will prefer to buy from you.
