Ordering Frozen Rats/Mice

[IrishWest0902]

I just got a new bp(Valdr) and the breeder said that he had been feeding Valdr rat pups; however, neither the local pet store or the Petco that is an hour away carry anything more than mice and adult rats. The breeder picked out frozen mice that he thinks are the right size, however he told me that it would be better to feed rats and everything else that I have read confirms that. So, it seems that if I want to feed rat pups, than I need order them online.
Anybody know any good websites for ordering frozen rats?

I order mine from the big cheese rodent factory. The web site is http://bigcheeserodents.com/ and they are very reasonable plus they have a great product! Very timely shipments and packaged so that no thawing takes place as well. I highly recommend them.

^^^ I agree 100%. Just got some rats in from big cheese rodents and everything came quickly. Ordered Monday, shipped out Tuesday and arrive at my house on Thursday. They vacuum seal their rodents so they stay nice and fresh and also when you order they hand pick the rodents, euthanize them, and freeze them right then for your specific order so they are as fresh as they get. They're not just sitting in a freezer for god knows how long until you order them. I highly recommend them and I've ordered from rodent pro before and their customer service is great but the quality if their rodents can be questionable at times. Many people have had great experiences with them and some have had horrible ones.

You also might want to see if there are any reptile shows near you coming up. Shows usually have rat breeders vending, so you can get a good bulk of food for a great price. Feeders online isnt super practical for a single snake because the shipping cost can be quite high

I just ordered 50 Medium 50 Large and 50 XXL large rats from RodentPro. Hope they are good quality lol. Anyhow the point is they are having a March Madness sale right now and a lot of their feeders are on sale plus $30/box flat rate shipping. My order only came to $250 including shipping on some pretty good sized rats.

I was going to order from them also but very expensive. I found a supplier on craigslist. Although my collection is small I got a 3 month supply of feeders for 40$ for 4 ball pythons

Ya unfortunately that 150 rat order should only last me about 4 weeks.

I love all the responses, however RodentPro is pretty much useless to me. I currently only have one baby bp, so I really don't need more than like 5 or 10 of a size of mouse/rat at a time since it sounds like he will outgrow them pretty quickly. Also, the $55 dollar shipping is outrageous when it would take my snake almost a year or so to eat 50 frozen rodents.
My point being that it would be nice to find a place that ships just like 5 or 10 of each size, that also has reasonable shipping because they are not packing just one big box, but fit the box better to the amount that you order.
I have found Mice Direct, which does seem to have reasonable shipping as well as small ordering amounts. Does anyone have any experience with them?
