    Re: Don't these prices eem a bit high?

    Yes, they are way to high. They probably aren't gonna get a lot of business.

    At buckrun

    45-80 gm rats 20 for $21.00 = 1.05
    Not including shipping

    However the equivalent from these guys is 3.00 plus they have a flat rate ship of $25.00

    Re: Don't these prices eem a bit high?

    One thing you might look at is the location for places. Often times if your in their zone the shipping is less.

    While I did not get into snakes just to get into rodents I am thankful that because I raise my own, I no longer have to hassle with this stuff.

    Same here, its awesome and easy just to be able to go to the garage to get feeders!

    Those prices are outrageous and i don't know where they got their quotes from but a small rat is about $1-$2 everywhere you go so $6 dollars is outrageous.

    Re: Don't these prices eem a bit high?

    Some places around here charge $4-6 for a medium-large rat. If they want to charge a super high price, it's their right to do so. Just vote with your feet and buy from another dealer.

    I'm lucky that I have a local supplier, but I often buy from online Rodentpro for frozen mice for the lizards because it's cheaper.. as long as I have enough extra funds to make it worth buying and shipping.

    My buddy breeds rodents and I get them in trade for animals. I was just surfing and saw those numbers, they seemed a bit high.
