Breeding alternative feeders to supplement diet?
I'm posting this thread because I've been mulling over an idea in my head. I want to feed my snakes a variety of prey items. Some of them are easy enough to buy, others are not. However, I'm sure that there are a whole host of animals that have never crossed my mind or which simply are not available to the general public. I've begun to wonder what kind of other animals are out there to breed as feeders. It can be a mammal, a bird or a herp as long as it fits a few criteria:
They to be something that isn't readily available as a feeder, or doesn't cost much more than the readily available options. They have to breed well, though not like mice or rats. They have to be about the size of a mouse or small rat, and they can't be poisonous.
Do you guys have any suggestions?
