Who's got rats to sell??

The guy I've been grabbing feeders from is running low these days and I really hate having my wallet raped at the pet store. I don't know if this is the right forum to try to find some to buy but I have never seen any ads for feeders (tons for every herp known to man but none for feeders) so I thought I'd ask. I'm not getting my hopes up here but it would be great to hook up with a supplier until I have room to breed my own. BTW I live east of Toronto if it matters.

thanks man! Is this seriously the only online source in the whole country? I've looked and I didn't even manage to find that one on my own so I guess 1 is better than none. Maybe I'll have to start one out here in Ontario and make a bloody fortune! thanks again

It's probably still cheaper to order from there and have them shipped across the country than to get bent over the counter at the pet store. Thanks again.

Why not breed your own? Most people who have a substantial collection of snakes do just that. That way, you know what you're feeding your snakes.

I had posted earlier about an accident that I have had that has been keeping me from producing mice.

Rest assured that we are going to be back VERY soon, bigger and better than ever. We have just begun receiving our breeeder mice from various labs (it took 3 to fill our order).

We will be running some great promotions once we are back up to 100% production (roughly 160,000 mice produced monthly).

I will post some pics of our progress soon

mykee,

I suspect it will come to that eventually, I've just been resisting that. I've had one failed experiment at breeding rats (helps to have a male in there it turns out, go figure) the work and the smell was just too much at the time. Wish I had a heated garage then they wouldn't have to be right in the house. I guess you'd need a barn or something like that to do the 160,000/month kind of operation, must smell nice in there! On the other hand maybe for some that is the smell of money.

yeah I definetly hate the smell of rats in the house. I'm working on getting them out side so that they don't smell as much (also working on an auto feeding system and auto watering system.

After that all that will be left to do is invent the auto-cleaning system and you're set!LOL

Auto-feeding and auto-watering is nice, but I'm more concerned with the cleaning.

Auto cleaning would be neat, and i've had ideas for it, but I can't afford the plumbing.
