How To Keep Feeder Mice if I Keep Kosher?
I'm researching and adding up prices for getting a pet snake, but I have one major issue: I keep kosher, and if I put frozen feeder mice in the freezer, that would be unkosher.
I've tried looking for mini-freezers online, but I only find mini-fridges with tiny freezers, and they're even then, they're out of my price range.
How should I store frozen mice if I can't keep them in the house (they can be stored in the garage)?

Just feed live or only buy a frozen the day you are going to feed

PetSmart (here in Canada) only sells frozen mice, and they're not sold separately.

I think I paid $200 for my mini freezer and it's well worth it.

Was it a mini-fridge with a freezer or an actual mini-freezer?

Have you tried Craigslist for a used one?
Also, what makes it not kosher to put the rodents in the freezer?

Also have you searched your town for other pet stores that sell live feeders my pet smart does not seek feeders at all and found another store that does

Re: How To Keep Feeder Mice if I Keep Kosher?
I was looking for mini freezers as well recently but made room in my current freezer and abandoned the idea until I get a killer black Friday or similar sale. What I did find in my research is Home Depot has some decent units that are freezer only models under $200. Hope that helps.

There are "chest freezers" on the smaller side that you can get cheaply too... They are not tiny though and you'd need to find a space to put them. You can often find used chest freezers on Craigslist or similar for cheap too.
