Just like with cars, cheap, fast, reliable, pick two. In this case you want uncommon, warm blooded (to my knowledge corns/rats don't eat cold blooded prey), easy to breed, and breeds enough to make it worth the money/effort to keep around. The only options out there that fit all of the criteria are already readily available, most from RodentPro. You could try African Soft Furs, Hamsters, or Gerbils but they're not exactly uncommon.
