Breeding rats
I might have to start breeding rats, it's not something I was looking into doing but paying almost 2$ for a small frozen rat at the petstore is killing me with the five snakes I have. So I wanted to know how I can go about doing it, I've never had rats before. I've had/have rabbits, hamsters, mice, etc though so I'm not new to rodents.
Can I keep 2 females in a cage with a male and have them breed or would I have to remove the male? Would he eat the babies or stress the mothers out?
And my other question is what's the most humane way to put them to sleep? My dad suggested putting them in a really small, closed container and told me it was painless for them but it sounds wrong to do that.
