Breeding your own food?

[jpsteele80]

I bread them a while back when i had monitors and it was worth the saving cost of buying bulk as monitors will eat 3 or 4 rats at a time every other day, just haven't done it with snakes yet so don't know the pros and cons of it. I usually dedicate 1 day a week for the snake room and cleaning and they will be in a separate room so i don't care what noises they make just as long as they pop out food lol

Lol. I hope they pop out food if you go that route. Definitely makes sense to breed your own if you are feeding more than 1 feeder per reptile. I just know, for me, it didn't and I am not feeding weekly with 80% of mine, so that helps. Might not be a bad idea to make a pro/con list? Perhaps.
