That's very kind of you. I'm always a little embarrassed to find that I've told someone something that they already know!

By the way, the Big Cheese site is the only place I've seen the 2 year shelf life specifically applied to vacuum sealed mice. Between their good reputation and their shipping special I just received my first order from them. The only prob was the 50 mouse package size. I still need 3 different sizes of mice. I figure I save enough over buying frozen mice in small quantities at the local big box pet store (only close place) to make doing it this way, including getting a FoodSaver, economical.

I raise & kill & freeze my own. Much better way to know what you are feeding your reptiles

I've never had very good luck with raising mice. They always eat each other. The pet store I used to get bulk feed from is no longer in bissness. I know it can work and be beneficial but for me has not worked.

That sux. They are cannibalistic little buggers! I raise rats not mice. My snakes eat large & XL rats

Now rats are another story, I used to raise them for a ball I had. Always had to many, never gave me any problems. Finally had to get rid of them, had to many in the freezer.

Yeah they are very neat critters. Tried talking my daughter into one of them instead of a guineapig but she thought they were grose.
