Breeding feeder mice

[adamanteus]

Yeah, I see what you mean. May as well keep buying them at the pet shop. I'd have to buy 1,000 to make it worth bothering.

How much do you buy pinkies for? 45p each in wales...

100 x 45p = £45.00 locally

100 x 19p = £19.00
Plus post = £9.95
Total to post = £28.95 at Ice Mice

Buy a few hundred and it really pays for itself!!

Having over 20 snakes, I used to buy in the thousands, still cost a packet, but cheaper than the shops...
Mouse food is sooooo much cheaper...

I paid something like 57€ for 30 5g mice 3 weeks ago and my butt is still sore. If I didn't live with allergics, I'd start breeding my own feeders.

I might just start with one male and two females, just for the pinkies. My only real concern is, that I'll find them too cute to kill. When I was 11 I shocked my mother by bringing home a pinky I had found in a stable and was trying to rescue. Now what do I do...? I have turned EVIL!

You kind of make a little gas chamber, attached with a hose to a Co2 tank, you can use a tank like you'd use for paintball.
