I have a group that I am growing out for breeding 3.2
(Best male gets breeding rights, other males get eaten.)

This seems like a great starting point, as I only have one ball python at the moment, unfortunately I have not had any success getting the ball python on F/K or F/T.

I'll be over ran by rats in no time at all, as euthanizing them is not practical at this point of time, and wholesaling the excess may prove to be tricky as the closest shop around is an hour away.

I know that there's always Craigslist, and Facebook groups to try and sell off any excess, which will be preferred, but let's face it even that isn't guaranteed.

I wasn't planning on getting any more snakes until after tax returns come back, but even then it'd be colubrids after I do a lot of research.
 
I am assuming your wondering what to do with extra rats? Well, freeze them until your able to use them, the shelf life of frozen rats is pretty high. And if your still getting too much, then lower your breeding to a single 1.1 pair.
 
I would guess so. I don't keep them around that long. If you get too many you could sell off the excess locally.
