[Scag]

Well, ever since i got my snake my family have been obsesed with it, and my mum and brother r looking at buying a python for themselves and in a couple of months im gunna get another, my mum freaked at the cost of frozen food at the petshop and suggested that i brred my own food, and here it is my best mate has a pet RAT (i know, hes crazy) and im looking at buying his rat a girl so we can breed them for my snake(s) and i was wondering
Are pinky rats the same as pinky mice?
Are rats hard to breed?
When this gets going, will i just kill the rats when they reach a certain age/size to suit my snake?
What is the best way to kill them, Co2?
Could anyone give me tips, and any Rat breeding info?

Thanks.
