Re: Rodent Pro
just to update everyone on this, i received my shipment from rodentpro and it was excellent. good quality, plump looking rats, clean, well packaged, still frozen solid, etc. any problems that others may have experienced recently were not evident at all in this shipment. the rats and packaging were exactly how they have been in the past for me and i am quite pleased with my purchase.

Re: Rodent Pro
Thanks for following up with the update. I was considering them until all the icky posts, and because they're shipping is prohibitive for me. I'm trying (for the first time) a vendor who's only about 2 hours away from me, so we'll see. I may end up going to RP after all.
Thanks again for the update!

Re: Rodent Pro
I just recently received an order of adult mice from Rodent Pro that was bad. Heads were broken off in the ziploc bag, when defrosted they smelled like the had been dead long before freezing and my snakes wouldn't touch them. They offered to replace and I told them "no thank you".

Pretty much exactly how we stumbled into homegrown rats.
THough I have to say when we were gettgin shipments from RP (bout a year ago) we never had any issues.

Re: Rodent Pro
3-4 weeks ago, Usually the mice I had received in the past were white but these were black and brown. I think like was stated earlier in the thread, that they purchase from outside when falling behind in production. Which would explain alot, but that gave me more concerns than anything. That is why I breed rats now, I will always have the right size prey for my snakes, and know the condition and diet of what I am feeding.
