I think one important point that many overlook when deciding to breed food is make sure you have a humane way to kill the rats/mice and make sure you are the type of person that can do this.Breeding mice isn't rocket surgery. That's why they are the first pets bred by a lot of children.
Saximus' mouse care sheet:
1: Provide clean water and food at all times - dripper bottles and food hoppers so they can't climb all over it and dirty it
2: Provide clean bedding at all times - wood shavings, shredded paper etc.
3: Provide an environment that isn't too hot or too cold - low to mid 20s most of the time and never over 30°C
Beware - mice stink. So, unless you have very tolerant parents and you don't care what your friends think when they come over to your stinky house, make sure you have somewhere outside that they can live.
