Where are people getting their frozen rodents from now?
I'm at my wits end trying to get some frozen rats ordered. I'm not sure who to trust and who has reasonable prices. Every time I try to switch to a new supplier they are out of what I need. I'm still a bit lerry about Rodent Pro, thoughts? Help?

Breed rats and freeze them your self? If you dont know who to trust.... Trust your self! Breed your own high quality rats so you know what your snakes are getting.
You will probably save money breeding you own rats anyways. I know I am.

No snakes anymore!

I love Layne Labs! They are a touch more pricey, but I don't care - the quality and service more than makes up for it.
As an example, they shorted me by 5 rats on my last order. When I called them, the guy credited my account within the hour (my choice - he would have sent me those 5 at no charge if I wanted). He was extremely appologetic and courteous.
The rats are positively pristine too. I've been very happy with them.

I should have mentioned that, I do breed my own rats and mice. I have over 100, but I'm not breeding any more than that as they are in my basement and they smell (I run an industrial exhaust fan in the summer, but it's too cold in the winter). I don't have a way of putting them outside so I supplement with f/t when I'm out of my own rats.

That's not bad at all, thanks for the info!

I've been buying locally and at expos. Fortunately my collection is pretty modest so I don't need to order in huge bulk. Unfortunately I have absolutely no space to breed my own feeder rodents.

Layne Labs - they've messed up my order once but they gave me a credit and I have always gotten their shipments super fast and the feeders are nice and healthy! Just note that the medium rats are a little small IMO so I'd get the medium/large sized rats but their jumbo mice are huge! I recommend them.

Stephanie have you tried American Rodent Supply?
Back when I used to order feeders the best quality I ever received was from them far superior to Rodent Pro and Mice Direct.

Re: Where are people getting their frozen rodents from now?
There is a place called Feedersource (.com) that I'm thinking about getting my F/T from - never used them before. I know they go to a lot of expos, so maybe some people on here have experience with them that can chime in?
