    Ordering bulk frozen feeders?
    Not sure if this is the right place for me to post this one. My collection is finally taking F/T readily so I'm looking to buy in bulk. Anyone know of a good place to order from? I know I could google it and find somewhere, but I'm wondering if any of you have any experience ordering from places and would suggest I give them a shot, or suggest I avoid them like the plague.

    There are a few companies everyone on here will endorse. Myself, I have been using Big Cheese Rodent Factory. Their product is clean, neatly packed, nicely priced, and one cost for shipping regardless of the order size.

    I also use Big Cheese....they vacuum-pack your feeders and ship with dry ice.

    I have been happy with Big Cheese and Layne Labs. Not RodentPro, however. They sent me a shipment and all of the rats smelled like urine. Disgusting!

    I raise my own but around hatchling season I can't keep up. I buy from whoever is cheapest at the time. I have ordered from RodentPro, Mice Direct, American Rodent and one other I can't think of right now. I had no problem with any of them.

    I order my frozen feeders from a company call perfect prey.com They are very neatly packaged and I have never had a problem with my orders.

    I order from Big Cheese Rodent Factory but Perfect Prey also has really great feeders. Rodent Pro has low prices but it's sometimes a gamble on if you'll get a good quality feeder or not. If you check the BOI on fauna you can read a lot of complaints about Rodent Pro.

    I've been buying from RodentPro on a consistent basis for nine years. I have seen a lot of people complain about their product but for me they have never been so repulsive that I would bother to look somewhere else. (I pick up locally so it's very convenient for me.)

    I buy from Perfect prey as well. (Just put an order in an hour ago, matter of fact)

    This is how my weaned rats came in:

    As you can see, perfect. (The brown thing on the bottom right hand corner is just the fluffy stuff they use to insulate it)

    Layne Labs is good too, but their shipping rate is usually higher that Big Cheese.

    Have to agree on thumbs down for Rodent Pro. Ordered from them once and was not happy with the quality. Rodent Pro throws a quantity of rats in a bag and then freezes it. I had rats that were smashed flat, folded in half, and so twisted around the others I was breaking off tails and limbs to separate them. I know the snakes didn't mind, but it seemed so unnecessary compared to how Big Cheese and Layne Labs preps them for packaging and freezing.

    Big Cheese and Layne Labs. And like someone posted above, stay away from Rodent Pro. I read a few people who actually had bad rodents from there that made their snakes regurgitate and actually lose color for a few sheds. You can also check local on Facebook for reptile feeder groups. One I'm in has a gal who does live or frozen rats/mice/asf and does delivery or local pickup and the prices are really good.
