Any mice breeders in Vancouver BC?

[Spirit]

Frozen, not live.

I'll pay extra for vacuum sealed, and give cash upon pick up.

Right now he's on fuzzies so I won't need TOO many fuzzies or hoppers, but once I reach adults I'll be buying in bulk.

Anyone? Thanks in advance. :)

well the www.mouseman.ca (Ian Muir) used to have some mice for sale.

But I think that he is getting out of breeding mice.
I know that he still breeds for himself.

Since you're not in need of a large quantity of mice, you might want to ask him.

Great man with great quality mice if you ask me.

I used to buy a lot from him until he didn't breed large number of mice and I am in Ontario......and I was happy for the price and quality of mice that I got from him~~

Well I didn't look through the entire website (didn't see an address) but I did see a phone number, and the 250 area code is central bc, and vancouver island... not lower mainland (Vancouver). So wherever he's located, is probably a good few hours drive (2-6 one way) from me, if not a ferry.

I'll keep it in mind though incase I can't find a local breeder... maybe he even knows of someone here.

Thanks, Simon. :)

Good luck in finding a mice breeder. He properly knows a few.

There are a few snake breeders over there so there must be a good supply of rodents. You just got to ask around.

Ask Jeff Favelle, Ian Muir, Don Patterson, Henry Piorun, Pat Dring over there for rodent providers. Those people are great people and would most definately help you out with finding some rodents~

[Spirit]

Thanks again. I sent him an email... hopefully he can lead me to someone local. :)

I just refuse to keep paying pet store prices. Right now I'm paying $2.49 per fuzzy, and it goes all the way up to $12.99 for an adult (rat, I think. Adult mice are $9.99).

Wow, I can see how that could get very spendy after a while. I know that currently I am paying 1.00 for pinky's and maybe 1.25 for fuzzies... cant remember the fuzzie pricing at my reptile store.

I hope you find what you are looking for though Spirit!

That is way to expensive spirit, I pay 90 pence for an aduld mice from a local shop, which is approx 55 cence i think, or is it the other way round and about $2 a mouse, eather way $10 for a mouse if way over the top in my opinion.

:-offtopic



To make a long story short,I'm a long time reader first time poster.
And this is gonna sound all crazy at first but if i'm right this will BLOW YOUR FREAKIN MIND!
So anyways, first off I just noticed you were from the lower main land in Vancouver(or around?) and I was just wondering where abouts you got your corn snake from.


sorry about going off topic, but I'm interested in Mice around here as well.

Well... yeah. That's why I'm looking for a local breeder. Right now I get my mice from the same place I bought my snake. Pet store.

[DiscoLobotomy]

I mean was the pet store called Super Pet?

Yeah, it's the only store around here that I could find corns. Do you work there or something (I know most of the staff)?

Edit: The richmond store... IS there one in Vancouver??

Blow my mind, Discodude. lol

[DiscoLobotomy]

I don't work there but I bought you cornsnakes sibling prolly a day or so before you did, I just can't get over how small the world is is all, so i mean you might not find that crazy but that kinda freaked me out at first!

[Spirit]

Mine was the only corn there for a couple weeks. There was a couple kings, but just one corn. They got a bunch more in though a few days after I bought mine.

But for sake of argument, when did you purchase yours? What kind was it, and who sold it to you?

Oh, and where do you buy your mice? LOL

[DiscoLobotomy]

just a normal, I got it about late august not exactly sure around the date,like the 20th or so, he/she was in the tank with another corn at the time and just after they sold him/her to me they got in i think albino kingsnake right next to the lone corns tank, i think it was advertised baby corns for $100

[DiscoLobotomy]

oh yeah, i get my mice in Ladner.same sorta deal as in richmond

[Spirit]

Ah, see? Mine was bought on Sept 30th. $99. Could have been a sibling. Is your a giant too? LOL

[DiscoLobotomy]

Id's say as far as a baby corn goes he's pretty big and he hasn't refused any mouse offered and getting he's ready to shed again(his second time.) I don't have a digital camera but i think i can still get a pic so I'll post that in a couple of days.

[Spirit]

Only a second? Mine has shed three times. The first being the day before I brought him home (Sept 29), then twice here (Oct 29 and Dec 6).

Looking forward to the pics. :)

[DiscoLobotomy]

Well, sorry I haven't been able to get pics yet, BUT you might want to check
out http://www.anniebmice.com they are based somewhere in the lower mainland and they deliver. also super pet sells frozen mice for i'm not sure how much but they give you 25% off when you buy 10 so, hope that helps and all.

They're in Abby (60 kms from me), but I did the math and I'll save approx $300 in 12 months. *gasp*

Damn straight I'll pay $10 for delivery, or take the hour to drive there. Thanks for the link, Disco. Merry Christmas 2005 to me! :laugh:

[Spirit]

Erm... wrong thread. :laugh:

Hello,

Sorry I am a little bit of topic too, but any of you had ever bought mice from www.canadianmouseman.com? Is he have good stock?

Thanks.

[Spirit]

Sorry, I have no idea... Anyone?

Or for that matter, does anyone know of a good online breeder that ships to (or within) Canada?
