Where to find frozen mice??

I will be needing to place a frozen mice order soon and I'm having trouble finding a supplier.

Where is everyone else getting their mice?

(my last order was from the Mouse Factory)
 
I've heard of people having trouble with Layne Labs (not answering phones/emails), American Rodent supply is not accepting new clients, and Big Cheese is supposedly closed?
 
The only issue that I have heard about Layne Labs is that it can take a couple weeks to get an order. Which considering that all of the rodent suppliers are trying to rebound from issues 8 months ago I don't think is that bad. And I am not sure about Big Cheese being closed. I hope that is not true since I was planning on placing another order in a couple weeks. lol
 
Try a local petstore. Ordering feeders online can be very expensive when it comes to shipping, unless you're making a big order.
 
You can also look into South Florida Rodents. I haven't done a BOI check on them but they seem to have decent prices.

Actually South Florida Rodents is offering free shipping to some places and flat rate fee of $25 to others. So depending where you are it could still be cheaper. I personally found it cheaper to order online even when I just had two snakes. Granted I would order a year at a time and that was a big chunk at once but it was still tons cheaper in the long run. Now I use it as an excuse to get more snakes because just one wouldn't cost that much more to take care of. lol
 
Big Cheese rodents is still open I just got an order in last week, great prices but the shipping can be steep unless you get a larger order
 
Thanks for the info! Our closest local pet store is an hour's drive away and their prices start at $2/each (for pinkies). I ususally buy for the whole year at a time, so even though shipping prices are high, overall it's still cheaper for me to buy in bulk. (plus I have some friends who order with me and we split the shipping cost)

Anyone ever ordered from Loxahatchee Rodents in Florida?
 
You may want to check to see if there is going to be a reptile expo near you soon. I believe they typically have feeder dealers at them, so you may be able to get what you are looking for without having to worry about shipping.
 
2 DOLLARS FOR ONE PINKY?! my lord.. that's horrid.. and they are making a killing if their actually making sales with that steep of a price range.

man, and I though that my local shop, was over charging- and I only pay 95 cents per pink and the quality is very good, and they are always in stock!

LOL I'm sorry for my small rant but when I read that I almost spat my drink out, I mean what would they charge per adult mouse, 5 dollars? :( rediculous!

I'd be ordering offline too!
 
Live adult mice are $6 each at the petshop here o_O I breed as many rodents as I can. I have mice, asf's and a dwarf hamster colony going currently.

I hear even the frozen mouse supply is low in Canada. I ordered from Near North last time and had rats subbed in for mice. He asked first of course. If not it would have taken a lot longer to get them in.
 
ARS is a good place. Order $100 worth and shipping is free. I am a current customer with them tho. I also have more than 1 snake and they all eat twice a week.

Honestly ordering in bulk is nice online. Cheaper in the long run. If you order in bulk, make sure to vacuum seal the mice you aren't using. Order reasonably too, corns don't stay on pinks too long.
-Skully-
 
We can personally say that Ryan Beatty is a great person to deal with and a great breeder. His rodents are packed properly and priced reasonably - we would recommend doing business with him.
