Default breeding mulimammates

i'm thinking about starting to breed my own multimammates for the snakes i own. does anyone else do this and is there anyone in essex that would be willing to sell me a male and a few females so i can get my own little colony started?

I breed them along with mice and rats. I can spare a few if you can get to Upminster in Essex.

My mate breeds them, and he thinks they are wicked but beware of feeding them to snakes you wish to sell becasue apparently they are addictive !!

I bred mice, rats and several other rodents.
I have also bred Multi's but found them very aggressive so endded off killing the two colonies I had.
I hope any you get are easier to handle.

I have and breed multis and they are not in the slightest aggressive to me or each other. They are easy to keep and breed prolifically

i have had some that go outta their way to bite crap outta ya everytime you open the cage !! I also found when you singled out these individuals and killed them off , you are left with multies that are just as good as rats and mice . They breed like wildfire but i have also found their young take forever to get up to feeding size !!!! But in the end , my royals love them so its worth it .
